Third and fourth optical transitions in semiconducting carbon nanotubes.
We have studied the optical transition energies of single-wall carbon nanotubes over broad diameter (0.7-2.3 nm) and energy (1.26-2.71 eV) ranges, using their radial breathing mode Raman spectra. We establish the diameter and chiral angle dependence of the poorly studied third and fourth optical transitions in semiconducting tubes. Comparative analysis between the higher lying transitions and t...
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 کاملQuantum interference between the third and fourth exciton states in semiconducting carbon nanotubes using resonance Raman spectroscopy.
We exploit an energy level crossover effect [Haroz et al., Phys. Rev. B 77, 125405 (2008)] to probe quantum interference in the resonance Raman response from carbon nanotube samples highly enriched in the single semiconducting chiralities of (8,6), (9,4), and (10,5). UV Raman excitation profiles of G-band spectra reveal unambiguous signatures of interference between the third and fourth exciton...
متن کاملStructural dependence of excitonic optical transitions and band-gap energies in carbon nanotubes.
The optical transitions of semiconducting carbon nanotubes have been ascribed to excitons. Here we use two-photon excitation spectroscopy to measure exciton binding energies, as well as band-gap energies, in a range of individual species of semiconducting SWNTs. Exciton binding energies are large and vary inversely with nanotube diameter, as predicted by theory. Band-gap energies are significan...
متن کاملInfrared spectra of individual semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes: Testing the scaling of transition energies for large diameter nanotubes
We have measured the low-energy excitonic transitions of chiral assigned individual large-diameter semiconducting single-walled nanotubes using a high-resolution Fourier transform photoconductivity technique. When photoconductivity is complemented by Rayleigh scattering spectroscopy, as many as five optical transitions can be identified on the same individual nanotube over an energy range of 0....
