Universality in the Photophysics of pi-Conjugated Polymers and Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes

Sumit Mazumdar, Zhendong Wang, Hongbo Zhao

We describe both pi-conjugated polymers and semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes because of the remarkable similarities in their behavior under photoexcitation. The common…

Photophysics of charge-transfer excitons in thin films of π-conjugated polymers

Zhendong Wang, Sumit Mazumdar, Alok Shukla

We develop a theory of the electronic structure and photophysics of interacting chains of π- conjugated polymers to understand the differences between solutions and films. While ph…

Electron-electron interaction effects on the photophysics of metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes

Zhendong Wang, Demetra Psiachos, Roberto F. Badilla +1

Single-walled carbon nanotubes are strongly correlated systems with large Coulomb repulsion between two electrons occupying the same orbital. Within a molecular Hamiltonian a…

pi-Electron theory of transverse optical excitons in semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes

Zhendong Wang, Hongbo Zhao, Sumit Mazumdar

We present a quantitative theory of optical absorption polarized transverse to the tube axes in semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes. Transverse optical absorption in semi…

Quantitative calculations of the excitonic energy spectra of semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes within a -electron model

Zhendong Wang, Hongbo Zhao, Sumit Mazumdar

Using Coulomb correlation parameters appropriate for -conjugated polymers (PCPs), and a nearest neighbor hopping integral that is arrived at by fitting the energy spectra of thr…
