High pressure study of double wall carbon nanotubes
High pressure Raman studies were performed in the High Pressure Spectroscopy Laboratory at Luleå University of Technology on Double Wall Carbon Nanotubes (DWCNTs). Laser excitation energies used were 1.96 eV and 2.33 eV. High pressure on the sample was achieved using a Membrane Diamond Anvil Cell (M...
