Controlled orientation of ellipsoidal fullerene C-70 in carbon nanotubes

In single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT), controlled orientation of ellipsoidal fullerenes C70 using density functional theory was discussed. The effect of nanotube diameter on the orientation of the ellipsoidal fullerenes was demostrated by using (10,10) nanotubes of 13.6 diameter for longitudinal...
