  We present evidence of all optical trion generation and emission in undoped
single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). Luminescence spectra, recorded on
individual SWCNTs over a large CW excitation intensity range, show trion
emission peaks red-shifted with respect to the bright exciton peak. Clear
chirality dependence is observed for 22 separate SWCNT species, allowing for
determination of electron-hole exchange interaction and trion binding energy
contributions. Luminescence data together with ultrafast pump probe experiments
on chirality sorted bulk samples suggest that exciton-exciton annihilation
processes generate dissociated carriers that allow for trion creation upon a
subsequent photon absorption event.
