摘要
The structural and electronic properties of the armchair C-x(BN)(y) nanotubes are Studied using the density functional theory with a generalized gradient approximation. The results show that the properties of the C-x(BN)(y) nanotubes are intermediate between those of carbon nanotubes and BN nanotubes, and also adjustable by their radius, ratio of carbon component, and configurations.
