abstract = {Possible ways for manipulating carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with
cyclic supermolecules are studied using density functional
theory. Electronic structure calculations with structure
optimizations have been performed for the (4,4) and (8,0)
single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) complexed with crown
ethers as well as for the (4,0) SWNT with beta-cyclodextrin.
A slight polarization of charge in both the nanotube and the
supermolecule is observed upon rotaxane complexation, but
the interaction is mainly repulsive, and the systems stay
2.8-3.5 A apart. The supermolecule does not affect the
electronic band structure of the nanotube significantly
within such a configuration. The situation differs
noticeably for chemically cross-linked SWNTs and crown
ethers, where a peak arises at the Fermi energy in the
density of states. As a result, the band gap of
semiconducting CNT(8,0) (0.5 eV) vanishes, and a new
conduction channel opens for the metallic CNT(4,4).},
