Combined resonance Raman and transport studies of functionalized carbon nanotubes

Objetivo

Impending nanotechnological revolutions will create a variety of novel approaches to addressing scientific and technological challenges in our society. The research and application of nanosized materials will be a major scientific and technological goal of the 21st century.

Single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) represent the one-dimensional form of carbon and can be imagined as a rolled up sheet of graphene with a diameter in the nanometre range and a length of up to several hundred microns. All physical pro perties of a SWNT are determined by the diameter and the angle of rolling up relative to the graphene lattice, also known as the chiral angle. Resonance Raman spectroscopy on SWNTs has recently reached a level of understanding, where the diameter and chirality can be determined by the position and the intensity of the radial breathing mode of the SWNT.

In this project we propose the combined measurement of resonance Raman spectra and electronic transport properties on the same functionalised nanotube device with the goal to investigate the role of chirality and functionalisation in electronic transport. The Raman and transport measurements will be carried out in field effect transistor geometry in order to tune the Fermi level as a function of gate voltage. T he electronic transport will also be studied as a function of external fields (e.g. photoconductivity).
