Optical Matrix Elements of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes for Longitudinal Polarization of Light
nanotechnology materials April 26th, 2010demonstrations.wolfram.com The Wolfram Demonstrations Project contains thousands of free interactive visualizations, with new entries added daily. This Demonstration shows the dependence of the value of the optical matrix element D_z for light polarized parallel to the nanotube axis over the Brillouin zone (BZ) of a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT). A general analytical expression for D_z for ... Contributed by: Jessica Alfonsi (University of Padova, Italy)
