摘要: A three-dimensional structure of two carbon nanotubes (CN) joined by a connecting region containing pentagon and heptagon pair is given the use projection method. The joint uniquely determined for chiral vectors CN vector which defines dihedral angle. tunneling conductance calculated metal-metal junction metal-semiconducting junction. results clearly show that these junctions work as smallest semiconductor devices.
