A detailed study of the electronic structure of all types of chiral nanotubes, previously collapsed via molecular dynamics, has been performed. We find that each family possesses a unique geometry and moire disposition, as well as a characteristic number of flat bands. Remarkably, all kinds of nanotubes behave the same with respect to magic angle tuning, showing a monotonic behavior that gives rise to magic angles in full agreement with those of twisted bilayer graphene. Therefore, magic angle behavior is universally found in chiral collapsed nanotubes with a small chiral angle, giving rise to moiré patterns. Our approach comprises first-principles and semi-empirical calculations of the band structure, density of states and spatial distribution of the localized states signaled by flat bands.engAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 EspañaUniversality of moiré physics in collapsed chiral carbon nanotubesjournal articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.carbon.2023.01.052https://www.sciencedirect.com/open access538.9Electronic-structureGrapheneDiameterCarbon nanotubesMoiréMagic anglesTwisted bilayer grapheneFísica de materialesFísica del estado sólido2211 Física del Estado Sólido
