Paper Abstract
Electromagnetic characteristics like absorption and electric field distributions of metallic carbon
nanotubes are simulated using the discrete dipole approximation. Absorption of electromagnetic
energy over a range of frequencies are studied for both parallel and perpendicular incidence of light
to the axis of carbon nanotube. Our simulations show 30% enhancement of electric field in the radial
direction for nanotubes with axial strain of 0.2 when compared to unstrained nanotubes in case
of parallel incidence of light. Simulations for perpendicular incidence of light show an oscillatory
behavior for the electric field in the axial direction. Analysis of simulation results indicate potential
applications in designing nanostructured antennae and electromagnetic transmission/shielding
using CNT-composite.
