Coulomb Blockade Regime of a Single-Wall Nanotube

Abstract

A model of carbon nanotube at half filling is studied. The Coulomb interaction is assumed to be unscreened. It is shown that this allows to develop the adiabatic approximation which leads to considerable simplifications in calculations of the excitation spectrum. We give a detailed analysis of the spectrum and the phase diagram at half filling and discuss effects of small doping. At small doping several phases develop strong superconducting fluctuations corresponding to various types of pairing
