Abstract: The Raman Scattering studies on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) obtained by laser ablation in a dedicated reactor, and stiff layered structure of surfactant intercalated with tri-layers graphene (TLG) have identified the active modes in structures. SWCNT analysis showed the purity of the nanotubes, i.e. the presence of the used catalyst and the type of nanotubes (semiconductor or metal) correlate with their diameters. The orientation of the polarized laser excitation light along to the TLG’s edges induces a higher intensity of the D and 2D Raman bands compared with the perpendicular incidence to the plane of the structure of the laser radiation which reduced to half intensity. The two lorentzian components of 2D Raman band which are splitted by ~ 40 cm-1 were found to originate from the Casimir effect as a consequence of interplanar forces which move the planes of the hexagonal rings of carbon atoms relative to each other.
