Abstract :
The structures, stability and electronic properties of some novel two- or four-segments BN/C nanotubes are systematically investigated using the density functional theory based first-principle calculations. Our calculations reveal that the structures, stability and electronic properties of these hybridized nanotubes are dependent on their diameters, compositions and hybridizing manners.
