Selective bundling of zigzag single-walled carbon nanotubes.
A simple, high throughput fractionation procedure for aqueous/SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) suspensions of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) is presented, which yields thin bundles of semiconducting-SWNTs with small chiral angles. To demonstrate this we show the photoluminescence signatures of nanotube suspensions that contain almost exclusively zigzag and near-zigzag tubes. Starting suspen...
متن کاملSingle - Walled 4 . Single - Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are hollow, long cylinders with extremely large aspect ratios, made of one atomic sheet of carbon atoms in a honeycomb lattice. They possess extraordinary thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties and are considered as one of the most promising nanomaterials for applications and basic research. This chapter describes the structural, electronic, vibra...
متن کاملCurvature-induced metallization of double-walled semiconducting zigzag carbon nanotubes.
We report total-energy electronic-structure calculations that provide energetics and electronic structures of double-walled carbon nanotubes consisting of semiconducting (n,0) nanotubes. We find that optimum spacing between the walls of the nanotubes is slightly larger than the interlayer spacing of the graphite. We also find that the electronic structures of the double-walled nanotubes with th...
متن کاملCutting single-walled carbon nanotubes.
A two-step process is utilized for cutting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). The first step requires the breakage of carbon-carbon bonds in the lattice while the second step is aimed at etching at these damage sites to create short, cut nanotubes. To achieve monodisperse lengths from any cutting strategy requires control of both steps. Room-temperature piranha and ammonium persulfate solu...
متن کاملTheoretical analysis on electronic properties of zigzag-type single-walled carbon nanotubes under radial deformation
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been attracting attention because they have characteristic mechanical and electronic properties. It has been reported that single-walled CNTs can induce large deformation without bond breaking. Therefore, it is of interest to elucidate the electronic properties of CNTs under large deformation. We investigate the deformation behavior and the change in the electronic ...
