IR-extended photoluminescence mapping of single-wall and double-wall carbon nanotubes.

چکیده
A simple and efficient technique is described for measuring photoluminescence (PL) maps of carbon nanotubes (NTs) in the extended IR range (1-2.3 mum). It consists of preparing an NT/surfactant/gelatin film and measuring PL spectra using a combination of a tunable Ti-sapphire laser excitation and FTIR detection. This procedure has been applied to a wide range of single- and double-wall NTs unveiling chirality and diameter distributions that have so far been very difficult to measure. The problems associated with deducing these distributions are discussed by comparing absorption and PL mapping data for NT samples prepared under different conditions.

The Attitude of Variation of Elastic Modules in Single Wall Carbon Nanotubes: Nonlinear Mass-Spring Model
The examination of variation of elastic modules in single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is the aim of this paper. Full nonlinear spring-like elements are employed to simulate specific atomic structures in the commercial code ABAQUS. Carbon atoms are attached to each node as a mass point using atomic mass of carbon atoms. The influence of dimensions such as variation of length, diameter, aspect...
متن کاملInelastic light scattering and light emission from single and double wall carbon nanotubes
We use inelastic light scattering (Raman) to probe individual and isolated single wall carbon nanotubes, suspended in air over trenches to explore the influence of the environment on the electronic transition energies. We find narrow and predominantly symmetric resonance profiles which are significantly downshifted as compared to isolated tubes in aqueous surfactant suspensions. A lower limit o...
