摘要
The electronic structure and the conductance of a carbon nanotube based metal/semiconductor/metal intramolecular junction is investigated numerically. The nature of electronic states at the interfaces and in the semiconductor section is analysed. The quantum conductance of the system is calculated in the coherent regime and its variations with energy and length are shown to be related to contributions from different kinds of electronic state.
