Light scattering on solitons in carbon nanotubes

Abstract

Within the framework of Hubbard's model in Huckel's approximation the single-partial states of strongly correlated electrons of carbon nanotubes have been investigated. Single-electronic wave functions which are looking like solitons have been constructed, and the scattering of coherent and incoherent light on the states has been investigated. The light scattering cross-section on carbon nanotubes has been calculated. The temperature dependences for energy width of quasi-elastic component and integrated intensity have been found.
