摘要
We utilize photoconductivity spectroscopy to identify the unique chiral structure of individual carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Peaks in photoconductivity are measured throughout the visible and near-IR wavelength ranges. Photoconductivity peaks associated with individual CNTs are referenced against existing Rayleigh scattering measurements to uniquely identify chiral indices. We find close agreement between our assigned exciton resonances and the previously published exciton resonances. The typical net energy mismatch is %26lt;= 20 meV. By enabling chiral identification of CNTs after the completion of device fabrication, the technique offers a facile method for investigating relationships between CNT structure and electronic/optoelectronic properties.
