We report a measurement on quantum capacitance of individual semiconducting and small band gap SWNTs. The observed quantum capacitance is remarkably smaller than that originating from density of states and it implies a strong electron correlation in SWNTs.

We characterize the terahertz detection mechanism in antenna-coupled metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes. At low temperature, 4.2 K, a peak in the low-frequency differential resistance is observed at zero bias current due to non-Ohmic contacts. T his electrical contact nonlinearity gives rise to the measured terahertz response. By modeling each nanotube contact as a nonlinear resistor in parallel with a capacitor, we determine an upper bound for the value of the contact capacitance that is smaller than previous experimental estimates. The small magnitude of this contact capacitance has favorable implications for the use of carbon nanotubes in high-frequency device applications.
We show that new low-energy photoluminescence (PL) bands can be created in semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes by intense pulsed excitation. The new bands are attributed to PL from different nominally dark excitons that are brightened due t o defect-induced mixing of states with different parity and/or spin. Time-resolved PL studies on single nanotubes reveal a significant reduction of the bright exciton lifetime upon brightening of the dark excitons. The lowest energy dark state has longer lifetimes and is not in thermal equilibrium with the bright state.

We report experimental measurements of electronic Raman scattering under resonant conditions by electrons in individual single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). The inelastic Raman scattering at low frequency range reveals a single particle excitation feature and the dispersion of electronic structure around the center of Brillouin zone of a semiconducting SWNT (14, 13) is extracted.

We present results of wavelength-dependent ultrafast pump-probe experiments on micelle-suspended single-walled carbon nanotubes. The linear absorption and photoluminescence spectra of the samples show a number of chirality-dependent peaks, and conseq uently, the pump-probe results sensitively depend on the wavelength. In the wavelength range corresponding to the second van Hove singularities (VHSs), we observe sub-picosecond decays, as has been seen in previous pump-probe studies. We ascribe these ultrafast decays to intraband carrier relaxation. On the other hand, in the wavelength range corresponding to the first VHSs, we observe two distinct regimes in ultrafast carrier relaxation: fast (0.3-1.2 ps) and slow (5-20 ps). The slow component, which has not been observed previously, is resonantly enhanced whenever the pump photon energy resonates with an interband absorption peak, and we attribute it to radiative carrier recombination. Finally, the slow component is dependent on the pH of the solution, which suggests an important role played by H$^+$ ions surrounding the nanotubes.
We characterize the energy loss of the non-equilibrium electron system in individual metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes at low temperature. Using Johnson noise thermometry, we demonstrate that, for a nanotube with ohmic contacts, the dc resistan ce at finite bias current directly reflects the average electron temperature. This enables a straightforward determination of the thermal conductance associated with cooling of the nanotube electron system. In analyzing the temperature- and length-dependence of the thermal conductance, we consider contributions from acoustic phonon emission, optical phonon emission, and hot electron outdiffusion.
