The nano-sized quasi-one dimensional hollow cores of carbon nanotubes make it possible for them to be filled with and wetted by foreign materials. With C, S and Se atoms as example, we have studied the filling and wetting of these atoms into carbon nanotubes from local density functional theory in first principles calculations. The results suggest that the effect of nanotube length is negligible when it exceeds 3.6 Å, there is a relation between nanotube diameter and filling and wetting. Our studies would be important implications for the further use of carbon nanotubes.
