Geometric quantification of chirality of carbon nanotubes

Chirality is a very important property in nanomaterials due to its possible implications in processes such as asymmetric catalysisand chiroptical phenomena. Carbon nanotubes can be classified according to their chiral vector and some of their properties changedepending on the values of that vector....

Descrição
Resumo:Chirality is a very important property in nanomaterials due to its possible implications in processes such as asymmetric catalysisand chiroptical phenomena. Carbon nanotubes can be classified according to their chiral vector and some of their properties changedepending on the values of that vector. In this work we use the Hausdorff chirality measure (HCM) to geometrically quantify thechirality of carbon nanotubes with different chiral vectors. The calculated HCM values can be used to make preliminary predictionsregarding the optical response of carbon nanotubes.
