ABSTRACTThe radial breathing mode (RBM) region of the resonance Raman spectra of HiPco single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) was investigated as a function of aggregation. This was modeled using an energetic deviation term (ΔE), imparted to the optical transitions (Eii(n, m)) by bundling effect. Eii(n, m) values obtained from photoluminescence (PL) measurements were used to reconstruct these RBM profiles. The simulation revealed that the PL-determined Eii(n, m) set provided a good fit in terms of peak position. Providing an accurate set of Eii(n, m) values becomes available, the RBM profile reconstruction methodology discussed herein could greatly enhance our ability to model a range of physicochemical changes to the immediate environment of SWNTs.

In this paper, the effect of environmental temperature on the radial breathing mode (RBM) frequency of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with arbitrary chirality is investigated. The analytical formulation is developed which can link the frequency to the geometrical parameters of the SWCNT and environmental temperature. Good agreement between the present results and existing experimental data is found. The results show that the predicted RBM frequencies of the SWCNTs decrease with increasing of temperature. The softening of the C–C force constants in the SWCNT is responsible for the temperature-induced downshift in the RBM frequencies.
