Abstract:
The electronic band structures of chiral copper nanotubes are calculated by the method of linearized augmented cylindrical waves. The number of channels of ballistic transport and the values of the magnetic field arising in chiral tubes when a direct electric current passes through them are determined. The results showed that chiral copper nanotubes are promising materials for creating nanosolenoids with desired properties.
