In this paper we use symmetry of Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNTs) to generate some types of virtual sub-bands that are lower in number than the real sub-bands obtained through conventional-TB. It is shown that the virtual sub-bands maintain the value of band gap. In obtaining the sub bands, the interactions of the nearest and the second and third-nearest neighbors are taken into account. As the consequence of lower number of sub-bands, a significant reduction in computational effort has occurred and made the approach useful.

Single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) have proved to be very special materials due to their unique electronic properties. Over the last years many scientists have dedicated their research to the study of the these materials as an electronic system. Amphoteric doping effects (n-type and p-type), which can be reversed, became a very popular way of manipulating the optic and electronic properties of carbon nanotubes. In the particular case of SWCNT, the most common and widely used procedure, which changes their properties, is acid treatment applied as a purification procedure. The effect of the addition of this kind of the dopant has been widely studied but not fully understood so far. Here, we present a study, of two kinds of SWCNT, produced within different techniques: (i) chemical vapors deposition and (ii) laser ablation. The main difference between the two types is the diameter distribution of the obtained materials, which is broad in the first technique and narrow in the second. After the acid treatment it is possible to observe a diameter sensitive doping effect on both samples. Resonance Raman spectroscopy, optical absorption spectroscopy (OAS) in UV/Vis/NIR and the Fourier transform middle-infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy have been applied for the characterization of the samples.
