Phonon density of states of single-wall carbon nanotubes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The vibrational density of states of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) was obtained from inelastic neutron scattering data from 0 to 225 meV. The spectrum is similar to that of graphite above 40 meV, while intratube features are clearly observed at 22 and 36 meV. An unusual energy dependence below 10 meV is assigned to contributions from intertube modes in the 2D triangular lattice of SWNT bundles, and from intertube coupling to intratube excitations. Good agreement between experiment and a calculated density of states for the SWNT lattice is found over the entire energy range.

متن کاملProbing the electronic trigonal warping effect in individual single-wall carbon nanotubes using phonon spectra
We have studied the trigonal warping effect in metallic carbon nanotubes using resonance Raman scattering and examining the G0-band profile for individual metallic single-wall carbon nanotubes. We show that the observed splitting in the G0-band phonon spectra is directly correlated with the splitting in the singularities of the joint density of electronic states, i.e., detailed information abou...
