Electronic transport in bent carbon nanotubesEric Kleinherbers1, 2, Thomas Stegmann3, and •Nikodem Szpak11Faculty of Physics and CENIDE, University of Duisburg-Essen, 47057 Duisburg, Germany — 2Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of California, Los Angeles, California 90095, USA — 3Instituto de Ciencias Físicas, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, 62210 Cuernavaca, Mexico

We study the electronic transport through uniformly bent carbon nanotubes. For this purpose, we describe the nanotube with the tight-binding model and calculate the local current flow by employing nonequilibrium Green’s functions (NEGF) in the Keldysh formalism. In addition, we describe the low-energy excitations using an effective Dirac equation in curved space with a strain-induced pseudomagnetic field, which can be solved analytically for the torus geometry in terms of the Mathieu functions. We obtain a perfect quantitative agreement with the NEGF results. For nanotubes with an armchair edge, already a weak bending of 1
