The most interesting term with n = −m is the mixing between the degenerate electron states within the same subband. By solving a secular equation for the intrasubband mixing of the electron doublet we obtain the splitting of the Van Hove singularity at the subband edge (Fig. 7). The new subband energy separation reads as: δEm = 8πeRσ m R 2h 2m . 28) Let us now calculate the injected/induced charge density σ which will allow us a numerical estimation for the δEm splitting. 28) are written for the given charge density σ, which will be derived in this section.

1 Statistical Approach to Calculating Self-Consistent Charge Density in SWNT in Vacuum Let us consider an example of a specific nanoelectromechanical device, a SWNT switch, and derive its quantum capacitance. We define a cantilever geometry of the nanotube electromechanical switch as follows: a straight SWNT connected to a side electrode and suspended over a ground plane electrode (Fig. 2A), and a “string” geometry of a SWNT device, as follows: the straight nanotube fixed (suspended without a slack) between two metal side electrodes over a backgate electrode (Fig.
