Impact of point vacancy defects on vibrational behaviour of three-walled carbon nanotubes.

Context: Through experimental observations and reports, various challenges have been identified in carbon nanotubes (CNT), including Stone Wales (SW) flaws and position flaws. Among these imperfections, point vacancies are the most prevalent in the CNT lattice. However, there is currently no established method for detecting these issues, and the influence of these flaws on the vibrational properties of three-walled carbon nanotubes (TWCNTs) remains uncertain.
