Reaction, diffusion and dissociation of excitons on carbon nanotubes

Photoexcitation of carbon nanotubes generates excitons which decay by exciton-exciton annihilation at sufficient density. We examine this decay under conditions of one, few and many excitons per nanotube. A classic ID reaction-diffusion behaviour is observed, with decay limited by diffusion for t&am...
