Using tight-binding model with nearest neighbour interactions, the optical properties of carbon nanotubes under the influence of an external magnetic field are analyzed. First, dipole matrix elements for two cases of light polarized parallel as well as perpendicular to the nanotube axis are analyzed. A close form analytic expression for dipole matrix is obtained for carbon nanotubes with arbitrary chirality in the case of light polarized parallel to the nanotube axis. Then the diagonal and off-diagonal elements of the frequency-dependent susceptibility in the presence of an axial magnetic field are investigated. The off-diagonal elements are applied to calculate the interband Faraday rotation and the Verdet constant. These effects should be clearly detectable under realistic conditions using weak magnetic fields.

During the magnetically-stabilized liquid-encapsulated Czochralski (MLEC) process, a single compound semiconductor crystal is grown by the solidification of an initially molten semiconductor (melt) contained in a crucible. The melt is doped with an element in order to vary the electrical and/or optical properties of the crystal. During growth, the so-called melt-depletion flow caused by the opposing relative velocities of the encapsulant-melt interface and the crystal-melt interface can be controlled with an externally applied magnetic field. The convective dopant transport during growth driven by this melt motion produces nonuniformities of the dopant concentration in both the melt and the crystal. This paper presents a model for the unsteady transport of a dopant during the MLEC process with an axial magnetic field. Dopant distributions in the crystal and in the melt at several different stages during growth are presented.

Abstract During the magnetically-stabilized liquid-encapsulated Czochralski (MLEC) process, a single compound semiconductor crystal is grown by the solidification of an initially molten semiconductor (melt) contained in a crucible. The melt is doped with an element in order to vary the electrical and/or optical properties of the crystal. During growth, the so-called melt-depletion flow caused by the opposing relative motions of the encapsulant-melt interface and the crystal-melt interface can be controlled with an externally applied magnetic field. The convective dopant transport during growth driven by this melt motion produces non-uniformities of the dopant concentration in both the melt and the crystal. This paper presents a model for the unsteady transport of a dopant during the MLEC process with an axial magnetic field. Dopant distributions in the crystal and in the melt at several different stages during growth are presented.
