This article presents a detailed theoretical description of tubular image states (TIS) around different tube geometries, along with their applications. It begins with a discussion of the theoretical background for the existence of TIS in conjunction with infinitely long homogeneous carbon nanotubes, finite and inhomogeneous nanotubes, and nanotubes arrays. It then considers the lifetimes and stability of TIS, along with the states’ tunability by external fields and the onset of chaos in TIS. In particular, it examines how TIS can be manipulated by means of electric and magnetic fields. It also describes nano-Paul traps of single electrons based on TIS and concludes with an assessment of recent experiments on TIS.
