Abstract

Carbon nanotubes (CNT), under hot attention as new material to achieve new nano-electronics, photonics, and ultrafast devices, have ultrafast responses to photo-induced stimulations. In this chapter we address optical observation of time-resolved reflectivity (or transmittance), capable of measurements of coherent phonons induced in the nanotubes by means of sub-10 fs laser pulses. The isotropic and anisotropic measurements are very sensitive to the polarizations induced by the coherent phonon generation in terms of the amplitudes, particularly in radial breathing modes (RBM), C=C stretching mode (G mode) and defect-induced mode (D mode). Anisotropic characteristics in coherent phonons are remarkable in the self-assembled films of aligned CNT. Metallic CNT, extracted after a purge of semiconducting component, shows spectral feature of Breit-Wigner-Fano (BWF) lineshape. Based on these results, we thus review the electronic transitions, superposition of different symmetry modes and electron dynamics, from the viewpoint of the elucidation of the coherent phonon dynamics in CNT.
