Phonon-induced current noise in carbon nanotubes shows multiple resonance peaks in the high-frequency regime, some of which cannot be explained solely by energy and momentum conservation or by harmonic selection rules. These findings highlight nontrivial electron–anharmonic phonon interactions governing quantum transport in carbon nanotubes.
