TLDR
It is shown that the Raman scattering technique can give complete structural information for one-dimensional systems, such as carbon nanotubes, by measuring one radial breathing mode frequency omega(RBM) and using the theory of resonant transitions.Abstract:
We show that the Raman scattering technique can give complete structural information for one-dimensional systems, such as carbon nanotubes. Resonant confocal micro-Raman spectroscopy of an (n,m) individual single-wall nanotube makes it possible to assign its chirality uniquely by measuring one radial breathing mode frequency omega(RBM) and using the theory of resonant transitions. A unique chirality assignment can be made for both metallic and semiconducting nanotubes of diameter d(t), using the parameters gamma(0) = 2.9 eV and omega(RBM) = 248/d(t). For example, the strong RBM intensity observed at 156 cm(-1) for 785 nm laser excitation is assigned to the (13,10) metallic chiral nanotube on a Si/SiO2 surface.read more

Self-built tensile strain in large single-walled carbon nanotubes.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the SWCNTs with larger diameters easily possess such self-built strain compared to small-diameter SWC NTs because of the weaker curvature effect for the larger ones.
