| Abstract | The absorption spectrum of the commercially procured SWNTs dispersed in 2 wt % aqueous solution of Sodium cholate and also in 1 wt % of Sodium dodecyl sulfate was studied in the wavelength range 240-2400 nm. Two distinct bands each containing three peaks in the nIR range were observed for both the suspensions. These two bands were interpreted to be due to transitions between van Hove singularities $E_{11}$ and $E_{22},$ which are symmetrically located at the opposite sides of the Fermi level in the density of states of the semiconducting SWNTs. These observed peaks were compared with the empirical Kataura plot in order to estimate the diameters and chiralities of the nanotubes. The diameters of the nanotubes were also calculated theoretically using tight binding approximation. It was found that the values of diameters estimated theoretically are lower as compared to those calculated from the experimentally observed $E_{11}$ and $E_{22}$ peaks using Kataura plot. This discrepancy is found to be higher for $E_{11}$ peaks than for $E_{22}$ peaks. It has been suggested that the reason for this is that $E_{11}$ peaks are blue shifted due to coulomb interactions and exciton formation and these effects becomes weaker as we move towards higher order singularities. The excitons thus play a significant role in determining the band properties of nanotubes. The intensity of $E_{11}$ peaks is also found to be higher than that of $E_{22}$ peaks and this is attributed to the lifetime of the excitons in the transitions. The excitons have a very low lifetime for $V_{2}-C_{2}$ transition as compared to those associated with $V_{1}-C_{1}$ transitions causing electron and hole pair to relax very quickly for the second order van Hove singularity. The TEM images of the sample were also recorded and the tubes were found to be present in a bundle of size 50-100 nm in diameter. Due to bundlingintertube coupling occurs causing a red shift in the transition energies.Therefore the peaks suffer from blue shift and red shift both but effect of blue shift is found to be more predominant. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
