CRIS Current Research Information System
IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishPristine single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT's) filled with C-60 are investigated with resonance Raman spectroscopy. Both totally symmetric modes of C-60 exhibit a surprising splitting into two components with a slightly different resonance behavior and an apparent loss of polarization. The latter can be understood from a symmetry reduction of the fullerene molecules in the center of the tubes and/or by an anisotropy of the electric field seen by the C-60 peas inside the SWCNT pods due to depolarization effects. The splitting is explained from molecular-dynamics simulations which show that the two bands emerge from a coupling of the C-60 totally symmetric modes to the fullerene translational mobility inside the tube. The doublet is thus the spectroscopic fingerprint of different mobilities of C-60 fullerenes in the tubes.

| Abstract: | Pristine single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT's) filled with C-60 are investigated with resonance Raman spectroscopy. Both totally symmetric modes of C-60 exhibit a surprising splitting into two components with a slightly different resonance behavior and an apparent loss of polarization. The latter can be understood from a symmetry reduction of the fullerene molecules in the center of the tubes and/or by an anisotropy of the electric field seen by the C-60 peas inside the SWCNT pods due to depolarization effects. The splitting is explained from molecular-dynamics simulations which show that the two bands emerge from a coupling of the C-60 totally symmetric modes to the fullerene translational mobility inside the tube. The doublet is thus the spectroscopic fingerprint of different mobilities of C-60 fullerenes in the tubes. |
