Abstract
In this paper we propose a model to evaluate the dispersion relationship of Carbon Nanotubes. The model is based on the application to band-structure calculation of both of them the tight-binding approximation and the theory of Linear Combination of Atomic Orbitals (LCAO), obtaining a reduction of computational time compared to other methods proposed in literature, without losing in accuracy.
