Abstract

The optical response of magnetically aligned single-wall carbon nanotube films was studied by polarization-dependent reflectance measurements in the infrared and visible frequency range as a function of external pressure. At ambient pressure the optical properties are anisotropic and show the characteristic excitations (broad infrared peak and optical transitions). The pressure-induced shift of the optical transitions reveals an anomaly at a critical pressure P-c approximate to 2.7 GPa. This anomaly can be attributed to the circular-to-oval structural phase transition in the nanotubes.
