TY - JOUR ID - citeulike:2794539 L3 - citeulike-article-id:2794539 N2 - The magnitude and spectral response of second-harmonic generation (SHG) from 0.4  nm single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in the channels of AlPO4-5 zeolite is reported. The second harmonics (SH) was found to be polarized perpendicular to the tube axis and maximized by an excitation polarization at 45° to the tube axis. A SH resonance peak at 2  eV was observed, which corresponds to the lowest-energy excitonic state in chiral (4,2) CNTs. The second-order optical susceptibility (2) of the system was determined to be 10−6  esu, which agrees with the large (2) predicted for small diameter CNTs.
