Rotating single-walled zigzag carbon nanotube
A nanotube is a nanometer-scale hollow tube-like structure.
Kinds of nanotubes[]
- BCN nanotube, composed of comparable amounts of boron, carbon, and nitrogen atoms
- Boron nitride nanotube, a polymorph of boron nitride[1][2]
- Carbon nanotube, includes general nanotube terminology and diagrams
- DNA nanotube, a two-dimensional lattice which curves back upon itself,[3] somewhat similar in size and shape to a carbon nanotube
- Gallium nitride nanotube, a nanotube of gallium nitride
- Silicon nanotube, made of silicon atoms[4]
- Inorganic nanotube, especially tungsten(IV) sulfide nanotubes[5]
- Tunneling nanotube, a tubular membrane connection between cells
- Titanium nanotubes, created by the conversion of the mineral anatase by hydrothermal synthesis[6]
