Abstract
The band gaps of self-assembled single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) films have been determined through curve fitting using the semi-empirical Tauc and Davis-Mott model, based on the measurement of optical absorption at the visible and near infrared range. This study provides a practicable option for the determination of band gaps for ultra-thin SWNT films or multi-walled carbon nanotube films whose vHs peaks cannot be well resolved in absorption spectra.
