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) phonons 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.

We present a theoretical model to describe the double-resonant scattering process in arbitrary carbon nanotubes. We use this approach to investigate the defect-induced $D$ mode in CNTs and unravel the dependence of the $D$-mode frequency on the CNT d
iameter and on the energy of the resonant optical transition. Our approach is based on the symmetry of the hexagonal lattice and geometric considerations, hence the method is independent of the exact model that is chosen to describe the electronic band structure or the phonon dispersion. We finally clarify the diameter dependence of this Raman mode that was controversely discussed in the past and demonstrate that, depending on the experimental conditions, in general two different dependencies can be measured. We also prove that carbon nanotubes with arbitrary chiral index can exhibit a $D$ mode in their Raman spectrum, in contrast to previous symmetry-based arguments. Furthermore, we give a direct quantification of the curvature-induced phonon frequency corrections of the $D$-mode in carbon nanotubes with respect to graphite.
We present an analysis of deep-UV Raman measurements of graphite, graphene and carbon nanotubes. For excitation energies above the strong optical absorption peak at the $M$ point in the Brillouin zone ($approx 4.7,text{eV}$), we partially suppress do
uble-resonant scattering processes and observe the two-phonon density of states of carbon nanomaterials. The measured peaks are assigned to contributions from LO, TO, and LA phonon branches, supported by calculations of the phonon dispersion. Moreover, we gain access to the infrared-active $E_{1u}$ mode in graphite. By lowering the excitation energy and thus allowing double-resonant scattering processes, we demonstrate the rise of the textit{2D} mode in graphite with ultra-short phonon wave vectors.
We derive the generalized magneto-absorption spectra for curved graphene nanorib- bons and carbon nanotubes by using the Peierls tight-binding model. The main spectral characteristics and the optical selection rules result from the cooperative or com
petitive relationships between the geometric structure and a magnetic field. In curved ribbons, the dominant selection rule remains unchanged during the variation of the curvature. When the arc angle increases, the prominent peaks are split, with some even vanishing as the angle exceeds a critical value. In carbon nanotubes, the angular-momentum coupling induces extra selection rules, of which more are revealed due to the increase of either (both) of the factors: tube diameter and field strength. Particularly once the two factors exceed certain critical values, the optical spectra could reflect the quasi-Landau-level structures. The identifying features of the spec- tra provide insight into optical excitations for curved systems with either open or closed boundary condition.
Three typical one-dimensional (1D)/quasi-1D nanocarbons, linear carbon chains, carbon nanotubes, and graphene nanoribbons have been proven to grow inside single-wall carbon nanotubes. This gives rise to three types of hybrid materials whose behaviour
and properties compared among each other are far from understood. After proving successful the synthesis of these nanostructured materials in recently published work, we have now been able to study their oxidation stability systematically by using resonance Raman spectroscopy. Surprisingly, the linear carbon chains, which have been theoretically predicted to be very unstable, are actually thermally stable up to 500 {deg}C assisted by the protection of the carbon nanotube hosts. Besides, longer linear carbon chains inside narrower CNTs are more stable than the shorter ones inside larger tubes, suggesting that the thermal stability not only depends on the length of linear carbon chains alone, but it is correlated with the confinement of the host tubes in a more complicated manner. In addition, graphene nanoribbons come overall in view as the most stable confined structures. On the other hand, peculiarities like the higher stability of the (6,5) CNT over its (6,4) counterpart allow this study to provide a solid platform for further studies on the application of these 1D nanocarbons (including true 1D linear carbon chains) at ambient conditions.
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.
