Research Abstract |
In order to control the detailed structure of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) during the growth process, in-situ observation of SWNTs in their growth stage by near-infrared photoluminescence spectroscopy was performed. I designed an environmental chamber, in which the sample temperature and ambient gas condition were controlled. I succeeded in the observation of the changes of photoluminescence spectra owing to the interaction among SWNTs and the elucidation of the temperature and ambient dependence of the photoluminescence spectra.
