Abstract

The patterning adsorption of the polyethylene oligomer (PE) on the side-wall of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) composed of CNT (5, 5), CNT (10, 0) and heterojunction was researched using the classical molecular dynamic simulation. The configuration of the PE chains on the side-wall of the CNTs depended on the dimensional matching of PE and CNT mostly. The patterning adsorption was presented when the length of the PE chains and the pure CNT part matched.
