Based on theoretical studies, regular coiled nanotubes exhibit exceptional electronic, mechanical, electrical, optic and magnetic properties due to the combination of their peculiar helical morphology and the fascinating properties of nanotubes. Although coiled carbon nanotubes provide attractive features, there is little both theoretical and experimental research. In the present work, we attempted to clarify essential aspect of the electronic behaviour of CCNTs and summarize results obtained until now.encoiled carbon nanotubepentagon/heptagon pairs (defect)carbon hexagonal networkstructureelectronic propertiesIntervention
