摘要
Three-pulse photon echo peak-shift measurements were performed on semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes embedded in a polymer matrix at room temperature. We found a striking dependence of the peak shift on the excitation intensity. Numerical simulations based on an interacting-boson model demonstrate that the intensity dependence originates from a highly nonlinear optical response initiated by exciton-exciton annihilation.
