摘要：
Scanning Tunneling Microscopy is used to obtain atomically resolved images of single-walled carbon nanotubes, in ropes of several tens to hundreds of tubes. The images confirm that in this environment strong elastic deformations of the tube lattice occur frequently. In particular, bent and twisted tubes have been identified. The observed distortions could play an important role in explaining the electronic transport properties of nanotubes.
