| dc.description | Electron properties of Carbon nanotubes can change qualitatively in a transverse electric field. In metallic tubes the sign of Fermi velocity can be reversed in a sufficiently strong field, while in semiconducting tubes the effective mass can change sign. These changes in the spectrum manifest themselves in a breakup of the Fermi surface and in the energy gap suppression, respectively. The effect is controlled by the field inside the tube which is screened due to the polarization induced on the tube. The theory of screening links it with the chiral anomaly for 1D fermions and obtains a universal screening function determined solely by the Carbon pi electron band. | |
