The effect occurs under the exciton-interband-plasmon coupling controlled by an external electrostatic field applied perpendicular to the nanotube axis. It requires fields ~1 V/nm and temperatures below 100 K that are experimentally accessible. The effect offers a testing ground for fundamentals of condensed matter physics in one dimension and opens up perspectives to develop tunable coherent polarized light source with carbon nanotubes.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2013-10-24T20:23:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "78.67.Ch", "73.22.-f", "73.63.Fg", "78.40.Ri" ], "keywords": [ "exciton bose-einstein condensation", "carbon nanotubes", "possibility", "external electrostatic field applied perpendicular", "tunable coherent polarized light source" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "doi": "10.1103/PhysRevB.89.045414", "year": 2014, "month": "Jan", "volume": 89, "number": 4, "pages": "045414" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014PhRvB..89d5414B" } } }
