Using tight-binding model with nearest neighbour interactions, the optical properties of carbon nanotubes under the influence of an external magnetic field are analyzed. First, dipole matrix elements for two cases of light polarized parallel as well as perpendicular to the nanotube axis are analyzed. A close form analytic expression for dipole matrix is obtained for carbon nanotubes with arbitrary chirality in the case of light polarized parallel to the nanotube axis. Then the diagonal and off-diagonal elements of the frequency-dependent susceptibility in the presence of an axial magnetic field are investigated. The off-diagonal elements are applied to calculate the interband Faraday rotation and the Verdet constant. These effects should be clearly detectable under realistic conditions using weak magnetic fields.

The quantum conductance of the electron interferometers composed of the armchair and metallic zigzag single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) in an axial magnetic field lower than 100 T has been studied by using the tight-binding approximation and Landauer–Buttiker formula. Quantum conductance oscillation as a function of gate voltage due to Fabry–Perot like electron interference was found. The analytical expressions of the rapid and slow conductance oscillation periods for the armchair SWNTs have been derived. It is shown that they depend on the magnetic field, gate voltage, and tube length. For the case of the metallic zigzag SWNTs, except rapid conductance oscillation, slow conductance oscillation was also found, which should not exist without the axial magnetic field.

We present a method of modeling of nonparabolic effects (NPE) in quantum nanostructures by using second order perturbation theory. We apply this model on multiple quantum well structures and consider the influence of external magneticfield on dipole matrix element which is usually considered constant. The dipole matrix element directly influences the optical gain, and our model can provide a better insight to how NPE and magnetic field influence the gain of quantum nanostructures.
