Quantifying carbon-nanotube species with resonance Raman scattering

Abstract: The method for quantifying the amount of each carbon nanotube specie, as defined by its diameter and chiral angle, as well as the semiconducting-to-metallic ratio in any type of carbon nanotube sample is discussed. Single-wall carbon nanotubes grown by the cobalt-molybdenum catalyst based ͑CoMoCAT͒ process are characterized. The semiconducting-to-metallic ratio is found to be 11:1. A single semiconducting specie, named the ͑6,5͒ nanotube represents 2 / 5 of the sample, while the most abundant metallic nanotube… Show more

“…18 In fact, our chiral angle distributions were even narrower than those of CoMoCat SWCNTs, 19,20 typically considered to have the narrowest distribution of all standard CVD methods. The observed fraction of semiconducting tubes in the 880 C sample was the expected 67%, whereas the 750 C one had a larger fraction of 80%.…”

“…4a). The intensity of the tube peaks is only comparative, not absolute, as the efficiency of resonant energy transfer varies; 40 it is known, for example, that (6, 5) tubes dominate CoMoCAT samples, although they couple weakly to the red laser. In the spontaneous dissolution process, the intensity of the peaks correlating to the semiconducting SWNTs decrease strongly, disappearing almost entirely.…”

“…For a more fair comparison between species within the same sample and between different samples, Raman data collected continuously over a broad excitation energy range ensures that each (n, m) species is sampled at its peak intensity producing a numerical intensity proportional to abundance. 127 However, this too can still be problematic as the peak "intensity" must be carefully interpreted, especially to account for the chiral-dependent optical transition line width, Γ el , as well as the RBM phonon line width, Γ ph , which can affect the observed peak height. The use of RBM peak area as opposed to RBM peak height as the quantity of comparison avoids the latter issue.…”

“…By measuring a complete REP for a given species, the integrated RBM area for each (n, m) across the entire range of excitation can be calculated, which accounts for all the aforementioned issues. 127 Finally, to determine relative chiral abundances, the (n, m)-dependent Raman cross-sections must be considered and corrected. Jiang et al 128 and later Sato et al 129 calculated the exciton-photon and exciton-phonon coupling matrix elements for many (n, m), considering contributions of curvature, excitons and other many-body effects, to explain the chiral dependence of Raman intensity.…”
