| Resumen en inglés | A theoretical discussion of electronic and transport properties of a particular family of double-wall carbon nanotubes, named commensurate structures of the armchair type (n,n)@(2n,2n) is addressed. A single pi-band tight binding hamiltonian is considered and the magnetic field is theoretically described by following the Peierls approximation into the hopping energies. Our emphasis is put on investigating the main effects of the geometrical aspects and relative positions of the tubes on the local density of states and on the conductance of the system. By considering intershell interactions between a set of neighboring atoms on the walls of the inner and outer tubes, we study the possibility of founding Aharonov-Bohm effects in the DWCNs when a magnetic field is applied along the axial direction |
