19. Here the position is measured as a distance from the fixed electrodes, therefore the vacancy migration along the outer wall cannot be confused with a relative translational motion of the inner tube.

22. The recombination of adatom-vacancy pairs may also contribute to the disappearance of those carbon adatoms and clusters at elevated temperature.
