High-throughput optical imaging and spectroscopy of individual carbon nanotubes in devices.
Single-walled carbon nanotubes are uniquely identified by a pair of chirality indices (n,m), which dictate the physical structures and electronic properties of each species. Carbon nanotube research is currently facing two outstanding challenges: achieving chirality-controlled growth and understanding chirality-dependent device physics. Addressing these challenges requires, respectively, high-t...
متن کاملNanotube–Polymer Composites for Ultrafast Photonics
Polymer composites are one of the most attractive near-termmeans to exploit the unique properties of carbon nanotubes and graphene. This is particularly true for composites aimed at electronics and photonics, where a number of promising applications have already been demonstrated. One such example is nanotube-based saturable absorbers. These can be used as all-optical switches, optical amplifie...
متن کاملProbing optical transitions in individual carbon nanotubes using polarized photocurrent spectroscopy.
Carbon nanotubes show vast potential to be used as building blocks for photodetection applications. However, measurements of fundamental optical properties, such as the absorption coefficient and the dielectric constant, have not been accurately performed on a single pristine carbon nanotube. Here we show polarization-dependent photocurrent spectroscopy, performed on a p-n junction in a single ...
متن کاملAnisotropic Decay Dynamics of Photoexcited Aligned Carbon Nanotube Bundles
We have performed polarization-dependent ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopy of a film of aligned single-walled carbon nanotube bundles. By taking into account imperfect nanotube alignment as well as anisotropic absorption cross sections, we quantitatively determined distinctly different photobleaching dynamics for polarizations parallel and perpendicular to the tube axis. For perpendicular polar...
متن کاملOrigin of axial and radial expansions in carbon nanotubes revealed by ultrafast diffraction and spectroscopy.
The coupling between electronic and nuclear degrees of freedom in low-dimensional, nanoscale systems plays a fundamental role in shaping many of their properties. Here, we report the disentanglement of axial and radial expansions of carbon nanotubes, and the direct role of electronic and vibrational excitations in determining such expansions. With subpicosecond and subpicometer resolutions, str...
