The authors' main claim We report here that a two times amplification in absorption efficiency can be achieved by water molecules confined in carbon nanotubes with small radius, compared with situations in normal bulk water, under irradiations of short mid-infrared pulses.

The compiled record

The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. Numbers in the tables are the authors', checked by code. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

The abstract, sentence by sentence

arXiv listing abstract v1. Results and the main claim are underlined; .

The energy absorption on nanometer scale is vital for many bio and chemical systems. We report here that a two times amplification in absorption efficiency can be achieved by water molecules confined in carbon nanotubes with small radius, compared with situations in normal bulk water, under irradiations of short mid-infrared pulses. The effect of confinement due to a (6,6) carbon nanotube is found to be very robust, equivalent to that of a 5 $V/nm$ static electric field. These findings are instructive not only for designing high-efficiency nano devices but also for understanding behaviours in biological channels.
