What is Photoluminescence microscopy of as‐grown individual single‐walled carbon nanotubes on Si/SiO~2~ substrates about?

## Abstract We present far‐field photoluminescence (PL) imaging at room temperature of tens of micrometer long individual single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) grown and measured directly on a Si/SiO~2~ surface. The SWNTs are grown by Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) with ethanol as carbon source and contact the surface with their full length. We detect the PL and its variations along SWNTs in a home‐built laser microscope with a spatial resolution of ∼400 nm. We are able to reliably assign (__n__, __m__)‐structure of SWNTs by measuring PL spectra in the range of 800–1600 nm as function of the excitation wavelength varying between 710 and 860 nm. This allows us to check structural integrity (changes of helicity) along the tube. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
