The behavior of three-dimensional ultimately short optical pulses in a system of carbon nanotubes in the presence of an external magnetic field

Resumo

The character of the behavior of three-dimensional ultimately short optical pulses propagating in a system of carbon nanotubes in the presence of an external magnetic field perpendicular to both the nanotubes’ axis and the direction of pulse propagation is investigated. Electromagnetic-field evolution is analyzed within the framework of the Maxwell’s equations, while the electronic system of the carbon nanotubes is investigated in the low-temperature approximation.
