Magnetization of carbon nanotubes

For narrow-gap carbon nanotubes, the curvature effect due to the misorientation of 2p_z orbitals dominates over electronic structures and thus magnetic properties. It significantly changes magnetization and magnetic susceptibility, and creates special structures in them. There exists a critical field direction in changing magnetism. The critical angle strongly depends on the chiral angle, the nanotube radius, and the temperature. One-dimensional carbon nanotubes are quite different from zero-dimensional carbon tori, such as in terms of special structures in magnetization, the strength of the magnetic response, and the critical angle.
