Abstract
Energy transfer in collision of light atom(ion) with a single‐walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) were investigated theoretically within two approximations, frozen electron subsystem and adiabatic motion, which correspond to high and low energi limits, respectively. Average energy losses as well as standard deviations were obtained as functions of the collision energy and ion charge for E = 0.1 ÷ 5 keV and Q = 0 ÷ 4. It is demonstrated that contribution to energy losses by elastic scattering dominates in all considered energy range and light ion can transfer energy to SWCNT of the order of tens eV which is enough for CNT destructions.
