Ab­stract

He­li­cally co­i­led car­bon na­no­tu­bes are fre­qu­ently synthe­si­zed, with well  elaborated tec­hni­qu­es of growth. This pa­per is a study of sta­bi­lity and conductivity of these con­fi­gu­ra­ti­ons wit­hin sim­ple the­o­re­ti­cal mo­del fol­lo­wed by the nu­me­ri­cal ap­pro­ach.

Keywords: Nanotubes, Carbon, Symmetry, Density functional.
