Abstract

The possible geometrical and electronic structures of C80 carbon nano-tube (CNTs) are optimized by using the density functional theory at B3LYP/6-31G level. The stability of the ground state structure has been studied, and its electronic properties have been calculated. The calculate results showed that C atoms are sp2 hybridization, but the coalescent between the two C atoms includes covalent bond and a spot of electrovalent bond. The molecular orbitals of C80 Carbon Nanotube had obvious delocalization characteristics.
