Based on the combination of the non‐equilibrium Green's function and density functional theory, a theoretical method for studying the transport behavior of high angular momentum 5f electrons is developed and the transport properties of the structure for actinide atoms embedded in carbon nanotubes (An@CNTs, An = Ac, Th, Pa and U) is reported. Results show that An@CNTs have lower transmission coefficients than that of CNTs. Furthermore, electrical bias to the U@(4, 4)/(5, 5) CNTs induces an additional transition spectral peak, which demonstrates that the U@(4, 4)/(5, 5) CNTs has a lower resistance. Therefore, 5f electrons of actinide atoms inhibit the electronic transport of CNTs. These findings may provide fresh insight into the transport properties of systems having higher angular momentum electrons.
