Raman Spectra of Double-Wall Carbon Nanotubes under Extreme Uniaxial Stress
Résumé
We investigated the pressure dependence of the Raman frequencies and intensities of the D and G bands of double-wall carbon nanotubes under strong uniaxial conditions. Using moissanite anvils, we observed for the first time the evolution of the D band under extreme stress/pressure conditions. We find that the difference between D and G frequencies remains constant over the whole stress range. In addition, we observe that double-wall carbon nanotubes behave elastically up to the maximum uniaxial stress reached in our experiments, which is estimated to be about 12 GPa.
