A total of fourteen modes were clearly resolved and identified, including fundamental modes of A, E1, and E2 symmetries and their combinational modes involving two and three phonons. Through comparison with CW Raman spectra as well as calculations based on an extended tight-binding model, we were able to identify all the observed peaks and determine the frequencies of the individual and combined modes. We provide a full summary of phonon frequencies for (6,5) nanotubes that can serve as a basic reference with which to refine our understanding of nanotube phonon spectra as well as a testbed for new theoretical models.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-12-14T18:05:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "single-wall carbon nanotubes", "multiple-order phonon excitations", "ultrafast generation", "fundamental", "time-dependent differential transmission spectroscopy" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "Nano Letters", "year": 2014, "month": "Mar", "volume": 14, "number": 3, "pages": 1426 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014NanoL..14.1426L" } } }
