Abstract

Nitrogen is an important impurity in CNTs. An overview of the interaction of nitrogen with impurities will be given in this chapter. The properties of a nitrogen atom depend on its place on the graphene lattice and on the closest neighboring particles. Nitrogen, which is located in the site of a graphene lattice, is a donor , however, if there is a vacancy nearby it becomes an acceptor . Processes of nitrogen interaction with the surface of nanotubes are complex. A detailed analysis is necessary to understand this interaction.
