We report the existence of broad and weakly asymmetric features in the high-energy (G) Raman modes of freely suspended metallic carbon nanotubes of defined chiral index. A significant variation in peak width (from 12 cm-1 to 110 cm-1) is observed as a function of the nanotubes chiral structure. When the nanotubes are electrostatically gated, the peak widths decrease. The broadness of the Raman features is understood as the consequence of coupling of the phonon to electron-hole pairs, the strength of which varies with the nanotube chiral index and the position of the Fermi energy.

We calculate the electron-phonon scattering and binding in semiconducting carbon nanotubes, within a tight binding model. The mobility is derived using a multi-band Boltzmann treatment. At high fields, the dominant scattering is inter-band scattering
by LO phonons corresponding to the corners K of the graphene Brillouin zone. The drift velocity saturates at approximately half the graphene Fermi velocity. The calculated mobility as a function of temperature, electric field, and nanotube chirality are well reproduced by a simple interpolation formula. Polaronic binding give a band-gap renormalization of ~70 meV, an order of magnitude larger than expected. Coherence lengths can be quite long but are strongly energy dependent.
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are quasi-one-dimensional systems with poor Coulomb screening and enhanced electron-phonon interaction, and are good candidates for excitons and exciton-phonon couplings in metallic state. Here we report back s
cattering reflection experiments on individual metallic SWCNTs. An exciton-phonon sideband separated by 0.19 eV from the first optical transition peak is observed in a metallic SWCNT of chiral index (13,10), which provides clear evidences of excitons in metallic SWCNTs. A static dielectric constant of 10 is estimated from the reflectance spectrum.
We investigate the effect of electron-phonon coupling on low temperature phases in metallic single-wall carbon nanotubes. We obtain low-temperature phase diagrams of armchair and zigzag type nanotubes with screened interactions with a weak-coupling r
enormalization group approach. In the absence of electron-phonon coupling, two types of nanotubes have similar phase diagrams. A $D$-Mott phase or $d$-wave superconductivity appears when the on-site interaction is dominant, while a charge-density wave or an excitonic insulator phase emerges when the nearest neighbor interaction becomes comparable to the on-site interaction. The electron-phonon coupling, treated by a two-cutoff scaling scheme, leads to different behavior in two types of nanotubes. For strong electron-phonon interactions, phonon softening is induced and a Peierls insulator phase appears in armchair nanotubes. We find that this softening of phonons may occur for any intraband scattering phonon mode. On the other hand, the effect of electron-phonon coupling is negligible for zigzag nanotubes. The distinct behavior of armchair and zigzag nanotubes against lattice distortion is explained by analysis of the renormalization group equations.
Structural modifications in InP(111) due to 1.5 MeV implantation of Sb have been characterized using first order and second order Raman spectroscopy. With both Longitudinal Optical (LO) and Transverse Optical (TO) modes allowed for InP(111), we have
investigated the evolution of both these modes as a function of fluence. Intensity, linewidth and shifts of the phonons, for both first order and second order Raman modes, display the increase in damage in the lattice with increasing fluence. The results suggest that the presence of a charge layer in the vicinity of the surface may be effecting the first order Raman data. A LO phonon-plasmon coupled mode, due to the charge layer, has also been observed that becomes sharper and more intense with increasing fluence. Results also show the presence of tensile stress along with the coexistence of crystalline InP regions and amorphous zones in the lattice. Consequently phonon confinement is observed. Phonon Confinement model (PCM) has been applied here to estimate the coherence length and the size of nano-crystalline zones in InP lattice after implantation. A crystalline/ amorphous (c/a) phase transition is observed at the fluence of $1times10^{14} ions/cm^{2}$. The electron-phonon coupling strength has been measured by utilizing the second order Raman modes. This coupling strength is seen to decrease as the nano-crystalline zones, in the implanted lattice, become smaller.
We present measurements of the $D$ Raman mode in graphene and carbon nanotubes at different laser excitation energies. The Raman mode around 1050 - 1150,cm$^{-1}$ originates from a double-resonant scattering process of longitudinal acoustic (LA) phon
ons with defects. We investigate its dependence on laser excitation energy, on the number of graphene layers and on the carbon nanotube diameter. We assign this Raman mode to so-called inner processes with resonant phonons mainly from the $Gamma-K$ high-symmetry direction. The asymmetry of the $D$ mode is explained by additional contributions from phonons next to the $Gamma-K$ line. Our results demonstrate the importance of inner contributions in the double-resonance scattering process and add a fast method to investigate acoustic phonons in graphene and carbon nanotubes by optical spectroscopy.
