Abstract: A simple model to explain microwave-induced heating of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) through transformation of electromagnetic energy into mechanical vibrations is proposed and analyzed. The model provides a way to understand recent observations of heating of CNTs exposed to microwaves in the range of 2-20 GHz. It is shown that transverse vibrations of CNTs during microwave irradiation can be associated with parametric resonance, as occurs in the analysis of acoustic experiments on forced longitudinal vibrations of a stretched elastic string. For carbon nanotubes [single wall nanotube (SWNT), double wall nanotube (DWNT), multiwall nanotube (MWNT), ropes, and strands] the resonant parameters are shown to be located in a region of instability of the Mathieu's equation. Wave equations with cubic nonlinearity were used to qualitatively describe the effects of phonon-phonon interactions and energy transfer from microwaves to CNTs at a rate much exceeding the traditional Joule heating via electron-phonon interaction.
