Metrological Investigation of the (6,5) Carbon Nanotube Absorption Cross Section.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using single-nanotube absorption microscopy, we measured the absorption cross section of (6,5) carbon nanotubes at their second-order optical transition. We obtained a value of 3.2 × 10(-17) cm(2)/C atom with a precision of 15% and an accuracy below 20%. This constitutes the first metrological investigation of the absorption cross section of chirality-identified nanotubes. Correlative absorption-luminescence microscopies performed on long nanotubes reveal a direct manifestation of exciton diffusion in the nanotube.

Ultrafast spectroscopy of midinfrared internal exciton transitions in separated single-walled carbon nanotubes.
We report a femtosecond midinfrared study of the broadband low-energy response of individually separated (6,5) and (7,5) single-walled carbon nanotubes. Strong photoinduced absorption is observed around 200 meV, whose transition energy, oscillator strength, resonant chirality enhancement, and dynamics manifest the observation of quasi-one-dimensional intraexcitonic transitions. A model of the n...
متن کاملChirality dependence of the absorption cross section of carbon nanotubes.
The variation of the optical absorption of carbon nanotubes with their geometry has been a long-standing question at the heart of both metrological and applicative issues, in particular because optical spectroscopy is one of the primary tools for the assessment of the chiral species abundance of samples. Here, we tackle the chirality dependence of the optical absorption with an original method ...
متن کاملPhotoluminescence studies of cross-polarized absorption of single-walled carbon nanotubes
Though our previous studies of photoluminescence (PL) of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) consisting of carbon-13 (SW 13 CNTs) synthesized from isotopically modified ethanol [1], we have found the excitonic phonon sideband peak due to the strong exciton-phonon interaction with the expected isotope shift [2]. Phonon sideband features observed for (7,5) and (6,5) nanotubes are remarkably si...
متن کاملDirect Absorption Solar Collector using Carbon Nanotubes Nanofluid: An Experimental Investigation
In this study, the efficiency of direct absorption solar collector (DASC) using carbon nanotube nanofluid in the mixture of water and ethylene glycol as the base fluid was experimentally investigated and compared with the efficiency of the flat plate solar collector (FPSC). The results show that the maximum efficiency of the DASC using the base fluid and absorptive bottom surface is about 4.7% ...
متن کاملSystematic determination of absolute absorption cross-section of individual carbon nanotubes.
Optical absorption is the most fundamental optical property characterizing light-matter interactions in materials and can be most readily compared with theoretical predictions. However, determination of optical absorption cross-section of individual nanostructures is experimentally challenging due to the small extinction signal using conventional transmission measurements. Recently, dramatic in...
