We studied electron transport in single wall carbon nanotubes placed in stationary homogeneous electric fields, oriented along tubes. Electron distributions for various electric fields are determined by solving stationary multi bands Boltzmann transport equation in presence of electron phonon scattering mechanisms. Contributions of all possible scattering channels, allowed by selection rules and energy conservation, are taken into account for finding scattering rate and collision integrals. As it is previously predicted, large electron drift velocities in straight single wall carbon nanotubes are obtained. Frequent electron scattering as well as low group velocity have strong impact on reduction of drift velocity in helically coiled carbon nanotubes.

AbstractDirected assembly of nanoparticles and single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) using electrostatically addressable templates has been demonstrated. Nanoparticles down to 50 nm are assembled on the Au micro and nanowires of the templates in a DC and AC electric fields. The nanoparticles can be assembled in monolayers and thicker layers. Single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are also assembled without alignment on Au wires using the nanotemplate. As the size of the template wires is reduced to nanoscale dimensions, an AC electric field proves to be more effective for nanoparticle assembly than a DC electric field.
