AbstractIn single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), their electronic and vibrational structure as well as their charge-carrier dynamics are crucial for potential ultrasmall optical device applications. SWNT properties have now been obtained from optical absorption and time-resolved photoemission and, at the single-nanotube level, by resonance Raman scattering and photoluminescence studies. This article presents an overview of SWNT photophysics, discussing important findings for the characterization of carbon nanotube properties and directions for future research and potential applications. The unique optical properties observed in SWNTs are due to the one-dimensional confinement of electronic states, resulting in van Hove singularities in the nanotube density of states. Optical measurements of phonons, charge-carrier dynamics, and the electronic transition energy van Hove singularities are discussed.

ABSTRACTThe ground state structure, optical properties and charge carrier dynamics of silicon nanowire (SiNW) grown in <211> crystallographic direction is studied as a function of wavevector using density functional theory. This nanowire can be used as fundamental unit of nanoelectronic devices. The optical properties are computed under assumption of momentum conservation$\Delta \vec{k} = 0$. The on-the-fly non-adiabatic couplings for electronic degrees of freedom are obtained along the ab initio molecular dynamics nuclear trajectories, which are used as parameters for Redfield density matrix equation of motion. By investigating the photo-induced process on this nanowire, it is shown that high-energy photoexcitation relaxes to the band gap edge within 75 ps. The results of these calculations help to understand the mechanism of electron transfer process on the Si nanowire.
