Ab initio study of the dielectric response of crystalline ropes of metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes: Tube-diameter and helicity effects

The dielectric-response functions of crystalline ropes of metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes were determined from time-dependent density-functional theory in the random-phase approximation. Interband transitions and plasmonic excitations were studied as a function of momentum transfer. The impa...
