Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="smll201470099-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>Single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are formed by J.‐K. Lee et al. from the spiral growth of graphene nanoribbons like an ivy vine growing on a tree. On page 3283, the helical structure addresses mounting inconsistencies in the measured mechanical and electrical properties of SWCNTs. The growth and material properties, including chirality, need to be re‐interpreted in terms of non‐idealised structures of SWCNTs. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgh122s919c" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
