  • Abstract
    In this paper, a new method of investigating the electronic properties of double-walled carbon nanotube is introduced. The method is based on dealing with it as two concentric single-walled carbon nanotubes. The results confirm that double-walled carbon nanotubes can be classified as semi metallic, from the electronic conductivity point of view, regardless the electronic type of the two concentric tubes.
