Abstract

State-of-the-art microfabrication techniques have led to smaller and faster computers and electronic devices. The emergence of nanoscale science and engineering (NSE or the so-called nanotechnology) has led toward the fabrication of much smaller and faster devices based on nanostructured materials. One-dimensional (1-D) nanostructures such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs) [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8] and boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) [9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14,] have attracted tremendous research interest in the past decade.
