Abstract

Resonant Raman spectroscopy was performed to study electron-phonon coupling in single-walled carbon nanotubes separated in solution. By varying the excitation energy from 1.26 eV to 1.93 eV we obtained radial breathing mode resonance profiles of the first and second optical transitions E, and E2, of the (9, 1) and (8,3) tubes. We observe up to 16 times stronger Raman intensities for the E, transitions which can mostly be attributed to a two times broader linewidth of the E-22 transition. Comparison of the matrix element ratio M-11/M-22 to theoretical predictions on the electron-phonon coupling show a deviation of a factor 1.7 which might-be associated with the change of the exciton-photon matrix element.
