  • Abstract
    In this paper, the complex of Fe4 cluster and single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) as a model system of metal cluster-SWCNT complexes is presented. Structural and mechanical properties of the Fe4 cluster adsorbing inside and outside SWCNTs with various chiralities are investigated by first-principles calculations.
