A radiofrequency induced intra-band transition in carbon nanotubes

Arrays of carbon nanotubes exhibit a polarization dependent radiative absorption at radiofrequencies and this enhanced longitudinal absorbance is attributed to electric field induced intra-band transitions within sp 2 hybridized orbits. This is supported by ab initio calculations.
