Straight carbon nanotubes can be connected into multi-terminal carbon nanotube junctions (MTCNTs) by the introduction of defect rings to the perfect hexagonal lattice. Typical MTCNTs include X-、Y-、and T-type junctions. Since the potential applications for the miniaturization of electronic devices, MTCNTs have attracted the attention of many researchers focusing on the preparations and properties both experimentally and theoretically. In this paper, the synthetic methods of MTCNTs, the relationship between the structure and stability, their electrical, mechanical, thermal and optical properties, as well as the applications of molecular simulation methods in the formation processes of MTCNTs, are summarized. IOur theoretical study on the formation of Y- and T-type junctions from multi-layered graphite flakes, and investigation on the structural stability of MTCNTs and the effect factors are also include. In addition, their possible applications in nano-electronic devices, hydrogen storage and functional materials are introduced. Furthermore, some questions and the research trends of MTCNTs are discussed.
