Abstract
Photoluminescence (PL) identifies spectroscopic signatures of intertube transfer of optically pumped carriers in single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) ensembles. Resonant photoexcitation of large band gap SWNTs produces strong PL from smaller band gap SWNTs. Magnetic alignment measurements associate the energy-transfer PL peaks with the formation of SWNT bundles, suggesting that efficient coupling results from physical contact.
