Abstract

The non-linear length-dependent resistance, R (l), observed in single-wall carbon nanotubes (SNTs) is explained through the recently proposed ionization energy (E_I) based Fermi-Dirac statistics (iFDS). The length here corresponds to the carbon atoms number (N) along the SNT. It is also shown that R_y (l_y) < R_x (l_x) is associated with E_I^y < E_I^x, which can be attributed to different conducting properties in their respective y and x directions, or due to chirality.
