Nanoscale oscillator on the base of single-walled carbon nanotube with internal fullerenes C36 and C80

In this paper we developed the model of GHz- and THz-waves detector on the base of single-walled carbon nanotube functionalized with trimer of fullerene C60 and free fullerenes C36 and C80. It was discovered the amplitude of internal fullerenes’ oscillation depends on temperature and strength of electromagnetic wave. It was found the parameters of incident wave when fullerene C36 and C80 reach wall of carbon nanotube at the distance of 1.7 A that is not sufficient to form covalent bonds. At such regime fullerenes accept charge from carbon nanotube that leads to change of system’s IV-curve. Discovered phenomena can be the basis for design of nanodetector.
