▎ 摘 要
We study one-dimensional (1D) carbon ribbons with the armchair edges and the zigzag carbon nanotubes and their counterparts with finite length [zero dimension (0D)] in the framework of the Huckel model. Using boundary conditions we derive energy spectra for 1D carbon ribbons. At the Fermi level we construct the explicit solutions and prove the rule of metallicity. We show that the dispersion law (electron band energy) of a 1D metallic ribbon or a 1D metallic carbon nanotube has a universal sinelike dependence at the Fermi energy which is independent of its width. We find that in case of metallic graphene ribbons of finite length (rectangular graphene macromolecules) or nanotubes of finite length the discrete energy spectrum in the vicinity of epsilon=0 (Fermi energy) can be obtained exactly by selecting levels from the same dispersion law. In case of a semiconducting graphene macromolecule or a semiconducting nanotube of finite length, the positions of energy levels around the energy gap can be approximated with a good accuracy. The electron spectrum of 0D carbon structures often includes additional states at energy epsilon=0, which are localized on zigzag edges and do not contribute to the volume conductivity.
