We performed photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy on single carbon nanotubes to investigate the satellite PL peaks, which are much lower in energy than the lowest (E-11) bright exciton peak. From the temperature and tube-diameter dependences of the PL spectra, we clarified two origins of the low-energy PL peaks. The weak peak, lying about 130 meV below the E-11 bright exciton state, is well explained by the phonon sideband of the K-momentum dark exciton states above the lowest-bright exciton state. In addition, a strong PL peak appears after pulsed-laser irradiation, and its peak energy depends strongly on the tube diameter. This PL peak comes from the triplet dark exciton states.
