Low-acceleration-voltage electron irradiation effects on single-walled carbon nanotubes were studied by resonant Raman spectroscopy. The irradiation at acceleration voltages of 0.5 to 25 kV was found to extinguish the characteristic optical property of the nanotubes and reduce their tolerance against annealing in air, indicating that the nanotubes are inevitably damaged by ordinary scanning electron microscope observation. The acceleration voltage of around 1 kV caused the most extensive damage. Less defective SWNTs were found to have a higher tolerance against the irradiation damage.
