Abstract
In this article we examine the absorption coefficient of charged excitons in carbon nanotubes. We investigate the temperature and damping dependence of the absorption spectra. We show that the trion peak in the spectrum is asymmetric for temperatures greater than approximately 1 K whereas the absorption peak arising from excitons is symmetric. We expect the positive and negative trion absorption line shapes to be identical, independently of the chiral index (n,m).
