In this work, we study the interaction of extremely short pulses with a nonlinear anisotropic optical medium with carbon nanotubes (armchair and zigzag type) with metallic conductivity. The dependence of the pulse shape, width, and intensity on the nanotube chirality indices is analyzed. The most appropriate type of carbon nanotubes is substantiated for providing localized propagation of an electromagnetic field in a medium with anisotropic properties.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
