Carbon Nanotubes: Quantum Cylinders of Graphene - Alex Zettl - Bog

Nanotubes can be formed from a myriad of atomic or molecular species, the only requirement apparently being that the host material or 'wall fabric' be configurable as a layered or sheet-like structure. This book focuses on nanotubes, unique synthetic nanoscale quantum systems whose physical properties are often singular (record-setting).
