Nitrogen-carbon nanotubes as a basis for a new type of semiconductor materials for electronics devices by Irina V. Zaporotskova, Sergey V. Boroznin, Natalia P. Boroznina, Evgeniy S. Dryuchkov, Kseniya Yu. Verevkina, Yulia V Butenko, Pavel A. Zaporotskov, Lev V. Kozhitov, Alena V. Popkova, Aleksandr D. Grigoriev

“…One can also conclude that a new semiconductor material has been synthesized on the basis of carbon nanotubes with substitution nitrogen atoms since the test tubes exhibit a redistribution of electron density towards the nitrogen atoms and positive charge localization in the vicinity of the carbon atoms. The results are of utmost importance for the design and fabrication of components and units for nanoelectronics and microsystems: our theoretical study has confirmed the possibility to control the refraction index and conductivity of media by implementing a carbon-for-nitrogen substitution reaction to various concentrations. …”
