Entry 01 Structures of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes

When talking about nano-structures, what is the first thing that comes to your mind? The answer may be carbon nanotubes. In this entry, we will discuss the structures of single-walled carbon nanotubes by thinking that they are formed by rolling a 2D honeycomb graphene sheet. Animations will be used to illustrate the structures of carbon nanotubes. In addition, I hope to explore whether the presentation can be enhanced by adding some basic interactive elements to the animations.
