The effects of excitons on the optical properties of carbon nanotubes : modelling and theory

Methods arc developed for modelling the effect of excitons (electron-hole bound states) on the optical properties of carbon nanotubes. The exciton effect is modelled using the methodology of the Bethe-Salpeter Equation, utilising a novel tight-binding formulation that is able to account for the effe...
