Abstract
The temperature-dependent frequency shift of resonant Raman spectra of double-wall carbon nanotubes is investigated in the range of 78–650 K. We show here that different radial breathing mode (RBM) peaks, which are relative to different tube diameters, have a different temperature coefficient of frequency shift, and the larger diameter carbon nanotubes have more RBM frequency downshift with increasing temperature. We attribute the RBM frequency variation to the temperature dependence of the stretching force constant of C–C bond.Keywords
