TL;DR: Results indicate that, in passivated nanowires, the minority carrier lifetime is not limited by twin stacking faults, and a significant reduction in surface recombination.

Spatially resolved temperature measurements of electrically heated carbon nanotubes.
TL;DR: Spatially resolved Raman spectra of individual pristine suspended carbon nanotubes are observed under electrical heating, revealing the mechanism of thermal transport in these devices and enabling a direct estimate of thermal contact resistances and the spatial variation of thermal conductivity.
Optical absorption and thermal transport of individual suspended carbon nanotube bundles.
TL;DR: A focused laser beam is used to heat individual single-walled carbon nanotube bundles bridging two suspended microthermometers and the thermal conductance of the bundle is obtained with the additional measurement of the temperature rise of the nanotubes in the laser spot from shifts in the Raman G band frequency.

Thermal emission spectra from individual suspended carbon nanotubes.
TL;DR: The thermal emission spectra of individual suspended carbon nanotubes induced by electrical heating are studied to provide evidence for electron-hole recombination in thermal emission and show a strong polarization dependence, while the blackbody tail is unpolarized.

Laser directed growth of carbon-based nanostructures by plasmon resonant chemical vapor deposition.
TL;DR: The strong plasmon resonance of gold nanoparticles in the catalytic decomposition of CO is exploited to grow various forms of carbonaceous materials, including amorphous carbon, graphitic carbon, and carbon nanotubes.
