Conduction Properties

The unique geometry of carbon nanotubes offers an ideal template for designing one-dimensional metal/nanotube hybrid structures. Through ab initio calculations we found that transition-metal/nanotube hybrid structures exhibit very interesting physical properties. The hybrid structures can have drastically different conduction properties from those of the pristine tubes and considerable magnetic moments. In some instances perfect spin polarization is achieved. The results point to a new and promising approach that uses such hybrid structures as devices for spin-polarized transport, which is expected to provide immense applications in the emerging field of spintronics.

Plasmon Dispersion

AbstractSurface plasmons, collective electromagnetic excitations coupled to conduction electron oscillations, enable the manipulation of light–matter interactions at the nanoscale. Plasmon dispersion of metallic structures depends sensitively on their dimensionality and has been intensively studied for fundamental physics as well as applied technologies. Here, we report possible evidence for gate-tunable hybrid plasmons from the dimensionally mixed coupling between one-dimensional (1D) carbon nanotubes and two-dimensional (2D) graphene. In contrast to the carrier density-independent 1D Luttinger liquid plasmons in bare metallic carbon nanotubes, plasmon wavelengths in the 1D-2D heterostructure are modulated by 75% via electrostatic gating while retaining the high figures of merit of 1D plasmons. We propose a theoretical model to describe the electromagnetic interaction between plasmons in nanotubes and graphene, suggesting plasmon hybridization as a possible origin for the observed large plasmon modulation. The mixed-dimensional plasmonic heterostructures may enable diverse designs of tunable plasmonic nanodevices.

We demonstrate a facile and novel chemical precipitation strategy for the accurate coating of TiO2nanoparticles on the surface of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to form CNT/TiO2nanohybrids, which only requires titanium sulfate and CNTs as starting materials and reacts in the alkaline solution at 60°C for 6 h. Using this process, the as-prepared hybrid structures preserved the good dispersity and uniformity of initial CNTs. Furthermore, the CNT/TiO2nanohybrids show a broad blue luminescence at 469 nm and exhibit significantly enhanced photocatalytic activity for the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) under visible-light irradiation, which is about 1.5 times greater than that of commercial Degussa P25 TiO2nanoparticles. It is believed that this facile chemical precipitation strategy is scalable and its application can be extended to synthesize other CNT/oxide nanohybrids for various applications.

Narrow Gap Semiconductors

The optical conductivities of two one-dimensional narrow-gap semiconductors, anticrossing quantum Hall edge states and carbon nanotubes, are studied using bosonization method. A lowest order renormalization group analysis indicates that the bare band gap can be treated perturbatively at high frequency/temperature. At very low energy scale the optical conductivity is dominated by the excitonic contribution, while at temperature higher than a crossover temperature the excitonic features are eliminated by thermal fluctuations. In case of carbon nanotubes the crossover temperature scale is estimated to be 300 K.
