Abstract

Electron spin resonance investigations on the angular dependence of carbon nanotubes are reported. It is proved that the resonance line is a convolution of three lines one due to electron delocalized over carbon nanotubes, the second assigned either to amorphous carbon or to conducting electrons in interaction with metallic impurities, and the last one originating from catalyst residues.
