We present a high‐pressure optical spectroscopy study on single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) doped with bromine using nitrogen as pressure transmitting medium. Bromine‐doped SWCNTs (Br‐SWCNTs) with different doping levels were prepared by the gas phase method and characterized by optical and Raman spectroscopy. The absorption and Raman spectra clearly reveal the effects of charge doping by bromine. Like for pristine SWCNTs, the absorption bands of Br‐SWCNTs show a red shift under pressure. Anomalies in the pressure‐induced relative frequency shift indicate structural changes in the nanotubes. The results are compared with those for empty nanotubes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
