resonances, the phonon spectrum exhibits characteristic behavior. Recently
this magneto-phonon resonance was observed in Raman experiments.

The same tuning of the optical-phonon frequency and broadening due
to change in the Fermi level is also possible in carbon nanotubes. In fact,
effects of the electron-phonon interaction on the optical phonon in carbon
nanotubes were theoretically studied earlier than in graphene.

In nan-
otubes, the modes are classified into longitudinal and transverse, depending
on their displacement in the axis or circumference direction. Figure 6 shows
the results of the similar calculations in carbon nanotubes.

In semiconducting nanotubes, the imaginary part vanishes identically
because of the presence of a gap. The frequency of the longitudinal and
transverse modes is both shifted to higher frequency side and the shift is
smaller for the longitudinal mode for small
k
F
. The behavior of two modes
as a function of
k
F
is similar to that of “level crossing.” In metallic nano-
tubes, the transverse mode is not affected by the doping at all. For the lon-
gitudinal mode, the energy shift exhibits a downward shift and considerable
broadening.
