Abstract

The 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.
