The effect of carbon nanotube chirality on the electrical conductivity of polymer nanocomposites considering tunneling resistance

In this study, the effect on the conductance of polymer nanocomposites considering quantum tunneling resistance is investigated with respect to the chirality of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and uncertainties in the geometric parameters of CNTs by using Monte Carlo simulations. The random spatial placement for CNTs was accomplished with a one-dimensional line segment and the periodic boundary conditions were applied to CNTs in the two-dimensional...
