摘要: We have studied tunneling of electrons into multiwall carbon nanotubes (NTs) in NT-gold and NT-NT junctions, the latter created by atomic force microscope manipulation. The conductance goes to zero as energy (temperature bias) is reduced, functional form consistent with a power law. exponents depend upon sample geometry. relationship between these results theories for ballistic disordered metals discussed.
