Filling rate dependence on theoretical Raman spectra of carbon C60 peapods
Abstract
We use the spectral moments method in the framework of the bond-polarization theory to calculate nonresonant Raman spectra of C60 peapods as a function of the concentration of fullerenes inside the single wall carbon nanotubes. The evolution of the average Raman intensity ratios between Raman mode of C60 molecules and nanotube as a function of the concentration of fullerenes has been analyzed and a general good agreement is found between calculations and measurements. #CARBON_NANOTUBES #PEAPODS #RAMAN_SPECTROSCOPY #SIMULATION #SPECTRAL_MOMENT_METHOD
