Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) is capable of providing information on both the geometrical and electronic structure of a carbon nanostructure. Utilizing a pseudopotential model of a nanotube we investigated the three-dimensional wave packet (3D WP) tunneling process through an STM tip – nanotube – support model for different atomic arrangements representing metallic and semiconducting nanotubes.
