Utilizing the line-group symmetry of single-wall nanotubes, we have assigned their electron-energy bands by the symmetry-based quantum numbers. The selection rules for optical absorption are presented in terms of these quantum numbers.…

The circular dichroism (CD) spectra of single-wall carbon nanotubes are calculated using a dipole approximation. The calculated CD spectra show features that allow us to distinguish between nanotubes with different angles of chirality, and…

We present results for the optical absorption spectra of small-diameter single-wall carbon and boron nitride nanotubes obtained by {\it ab initio} calculations in the framework of time-dependent density functional theory. We compare the…

We present a quantitative theory of optical absorption polarized transverse to the tube axes in semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes. Transverse optical absorption in semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes is to an exciton…

We present a detailed electron diffraction study of individual single-walled carbon nanotubes. A novel sample preparation procedure provides well-separated, long and straight individual single-shell nanotubes. Diffraction experiments are…

The electronic bandgaps measured in fluorescence spectroscopy on individual single wall carbon nanotubes isolated within micelles show signficant deviations from the predictions of one electron band theory. We resolve this problem by…

We consider chirality related effects in optical, photogalvanic and electron-transport properties of carbon nanotubes. We show that these properties of chiral nanotubes are determined by terms in the electron effective Hamiltonian…

Determination of optical absorption cross-section is always among the central importance of understanding a material. However its realization on individual nanostructures, such as carbon nanotubes, is experimentally challenging due to the…

Electromagnetic characteristics of single-walled finite-length carbon nanotubes - absorption cross-section and field enhancement in the near zone - are theoretically studied in a wide frequency range from terahertz to visible. The analysis…

A single-walled carbon nanotube presents a seamless cylindrical graphene surface and is thus an ideal adsorption substrate for investigating the physics of atoms and molecules in two dimensions and approaching the one-dimensional limit.…

We investigate the properties of conduction electrons in single-walled armchair carbon nanotubes in the presence of mutually orthogonal electric and magnetic fields transverse to the tube's axis. We find that the fields give rise to an…

We present a theoretical study of the optical absorption spectrum of small boron-nitride and carbon nanotubes using time-dependent density-functional theory and the random phase approximation. Both for C and BN tubes, the absorption of…

We describe a film of highly-aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes that acts as an excellent terahertz linear polarizer. There is virtually no attenuation (strong absorption) when the terahertz polarization is perpendicular (parallel) to…

We present a tight binding theory to analyze the motion of electrons between carbon nanotubes bundled into a carbon nanotube rope. The theory is developed starting from a description of the propagating Bloch waves on ideal tubes, and the…

Single-wall carbon nanotubes are almost ideal systems for the investigation of exotic many-body effects due to non-Fermi liquid behavior of interacting electrons in one dimension. Recent theoretical and experimental results are reviewed…

We report a detailed analysis of the optical properties of single wall carbon nanotubes with different mean diameters as produced by laser ablation. From a combined study of optical absorption, high resolution electron energy-loss…

We study the Aharonov-Bohm effect in the optical phenomena of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCN) and also their chirality dependence. Specially, we consider the natural optical activity as a proper observable and derive it's general…

We propose a new theoretical interpretation of the electron energy-loss spectroscopy results of Pichler {\it et al.} on bulk carbon nanotube samples. The experimentally found nondispersive modes have been attributed by Pichler {\it et al.}…

The rates of electron scattering via phonons in the armchair single-wall carbon nanotubes were calculated by using the improved scattering theory within the tight-binding approximation. Therefore, the problem connected with the discrepancy…

Physical property of a single quantum object is governed by its precise atomic arrangement. The direct correlation of localized physical properties with the atomic structures has been therefore strongly desired but still limited in the…
