Here, we present a complete set of photoluminescence profiles in matrix embedded nanotubes including unprecedented narrow emission lines. We demonstrate that the diversity of the low-temperature luminescence profiles in nanotubes originates in tiny modifications of their low-energy acoustic phonon modes. When low energy modes are locally suppressed, a sharp photoluminescence line as narrow as 0.7 meV is restored. Furthermore, multi-peak luminescence profiles with specific temperature dependence show the presence of confined phonon modes. %G English %2 https://hal.science/hal-01066160/document %2 https://hal.science/hal-01066160/file/Vialla.pdf %L hal-01066160 %U https://hal.science/hal-01066160 %~ UNIV-PARIS7 %~ ENS-PARIS %~ UPMC %~ LPA %~ CNRS %~ UNIV-PSUD %~ ENS-CACHAN %~ LPA-OPT %~ L2C %~ PSL %~ UNIV-PARIS-SACLAY %~ UNIV-PSUD-SACLAY %~ UPMC_POLE_2 %~ MIPS %~ UNIV-MONTPELLIER %~ SORBONNE-UNIVERSITE %~ SU-SCIENCES %~ UNIV-PARIS %~ LUMIN %~ ENS-PSL %~ SU-TI %~ ENS-PARIS-SACLAY %~ GS-PHYSIQUE %~ ALLIANCE-SU %~ UM-2015-2021 %~ AIME-COTTON
