利用声等离子体激元实现掺杂半导体碳纳米管的可调带隙和激子

Tunable bandgaps and excitons in doped semiconducting carbon nanotubes made possible by acoustic plasmons

Catalin D. Spataru, François Léonard

摘要:

半导体的掺杂在现代电子和光子器件中是必不可少的。虽然掺杂在体半导体中得到了很好的理解,但用于纳米电子和纳米光子应用的碳纳米管和纳米线的出现提出了一些关于低维掺杂的作用和影响的关键问题。在这里,我们表明,对于半导体碳纳米管,带隙和激子结合能可以显着降低实验相关的掺杂,并可以在较宽的能量范围内逐渐调整,相反,更高的维度系统。后者的功能是可能的一种新的机制,涉及强动态屏蔽效应介导的声等离子体。

英文摘要:

Doping of semiconductors is essential in modern electronic and photonic devices. While doping is well understood in bulk semiconductors, the advent of carbon nanotubes and nanowires for nanoelectronic and nanophotonic applications raises some key questions about the role and impact of doping at low dimensionality. Here we show that for semiconducting carbon nanotubes, bandgaps and exciton binding energies can be dramatically reduced upon experimentally relevant doping, and can be tuned gradually over a broad range of energies in contrast to higher dimensional systems. The later feature is made possible by a novel mechanism involving strong dynamical screening effects mediated by acoustic plasmons.
