| Abstract | By measuring the anti-Stokes ~AS! and Stokes~S! Raman spectra on the same isolated single-wall carbon nanotube~SWNT!, we here determine the electronic transition energies Eii experimentally ( Eii ), and then we compare theseEii exp with the Eii values obtained with theoretical predictions ( Eii ). In such an approach, the nanotube ( n,m) structure identification depends on the theory parameters, but the experimental determination of Eii exp does not, and depends only on the experimental AS/S intensity ratio and the laser energy Elaserused in the experiment. We measured the radial breathing mode frequency vRBM andEii exp for specific tubes, and we then performed the ( n,m) identification by using thedt diameter dependence of the electronic transitions. We present such an analysis for a wide nanotube diameter range, focusing primarily on small diameter SWNTs (dt,1.1 nm), where there are very few ( n,m) possibilities for SWNTs that can be in resonance with the appropriate laser energy Elaser. This allows an experimental determination of Eii exp values to be made for a variety of (n,m) SWNTs. Our experimental results indicate that: ~i! the large curvature in small diameter tubes induces as-p hybridization, thus lowering the electronic band energies, and ~ii ! the simple formulation of the tight binding model ( g052.89 eV) to determineEii starts to deviate fromEii exp for tubes withdt,1.1 nm, but the deviationDE225E22 2E22 cal remains smaller than 20 meV for dt>0.83 nm.
