Electronic Raman Scattering On Individual Semiconducting Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report experimental measurements of electronic Raman scattering by electrons (holes) in individual single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) under resonant conditions. The Raman scattering at low frequency range reveals a single particle excitation feature. And the dispersion of electronic structure around the center of Brillouin zone of a semiconducting SWNT (14, 13) is extracted.

Electrochemical charging of individual single-walled carbon nanotubes.
The influence of the electrode potential on the electronic structure of individual single-walled carbon nanotubes is studied using Raman spectroscopy. By analyzing the radial breathing mode intensity versus electrode potential profiles in the Raman spectra at many different laser excitation energies, we show that the charging of individual carbon nanotubes causes a broadening of the resonant Ra...
متن کاملProbing electronic transitions in individual carbon nanotubes by Rayleigh scattering.
Rayleigh scattering spectra were obtained from individual single-walled carbon nanotubes with the use of a laser-generated visible and near-infrared supercontinuum. This diagnostic method is noninvasive and general for nanoscale objects. The approach permits clear identification of excited states in arbitrary metallic and semiconducting nanotubes. We analyzed spectral lineshapes in relation to ...
متن کاملRaman Scattering in Carbon Nanotubes
The vibrational properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes reflect the electron and phonon confinement as well as the cylindrical geometry of the tubes. Raman scattering is one of the prime techniques for studying the fundamental properties of carbon tubes and nanotube characterization. The most important phonon for sample characterization is the radial-breathing mode, an in-phase radial move...
متن کاملFunctionalization of single-walled carbon nanotubes using isotropic plasma treatment: Resonant Raman spectroscopy study
Functionalization of single-walled carbon nanotubes sSWNTsd by isotropic plasma treatment was studied using resonant Raman spectroscopy. It was shown that plasma-induced functionalization results in the uniaxial isotropic constriction of the nanotubes but preserves their overall structural integrity. It was demonstrated that NH3 ·H2O and hexamethyldisiloxan plasmas yield various types of conduc...
متن کاملResonant Raman effect in single-wall carbon nanotubes
A resonant Raman study of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) using several laser lines between 0.94 and 3.05 eV is presented. A detailed lineshape analysis shows that the bands associated with the nanotube radial breathing mode are composed of a sum of individual peaks whose relative intensities depend strongly on the laser energy, in agreement with prior work. On the other hand, the shape of ...
