Journal ArticleDOI
Band gap fluorescence from individual single-walled carbon nanotubes.
Michael J. O'Connell,Sergei M. Bachilo,Chad B. Huffman,Valerie C. Moore,Michael S. Strano,Erik H. Haroz,Kristy L. Rialon,Peter J. Boul,William H. Noon,Carter Kittrell,Jianpeng Ma,Jianpeng Ma,Robert H. Hauge,R. Bruce Weisman,Richard E. Smalley +14 more
TL;DR: At pH less than 5, the absorption and emission spectra of individual nanotubes show evidence of band gap–selective protonation of the side walls of the tube, which is readily reversed by treatment with base or ultraviolet light.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure-Assigned Optical Spectra of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Sergei M. Bachilo,Michael S. Strano,Carter Kittrell,Robert H. Hauge,Richard E. Smalley,R. Bruce Weisman +5 more
TL;DR: Optical spectroscopy can be used to rapidly determine the detailed composition of bulk SWNT samples, providing distributions in both tube diameter and chiral angle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electronic structure control of single-walled carbon nanotube functionalization.
Michael S. Strano,Christopher A. Dyke,Monica L. Usrey,Paul W. Barone,Mathew J. Allen,Hongwei Shan,Carter Kittrell,Robert H. Hauge,James M. Tour,Richard E. Smalley +9 more
TL;DR: Diazonium reagents functionalize single-walled carbon nanotubes suspended in aqueous solution with high selectivity and enable manipulation according to electronic structure to reverse the chemistry by using a thermal treatment that restores the pristine electronic structure of the nanotube.
Journal ArticleDOI
Macroscopic, Neat, Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube Fibers
Lars M. Ericson,Hua Fan,Haiqing Peng,Virginia A. Davis,Wei Zhou,Joseph A. Sulpizio,YuHuang Wang,Richard Booker,Juraj Vavro,Csaba Guthy,A. Nicholas G. Parra-Vasquez,Myung Jong Kim,Sivarajan Ramesh,Rajesh K. Saini,Carter Kittrell,Gerry Lavin,Howard K. Schmidt,W. Wade Adams,W. E. Billups,Matteo Pasquali,Wen Fang Hwang,Robert H. Hauge,John E. Fischer,Richard E. Smalley +23 more
TL;DR: In this article, a well-aligned macroscopic fiber composed solely of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) was produced by conventional spinning, where fuming sulfuric acid charges SWNTs and promotes their ordering into an aligned phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toward the synthesis of wafer-scale single-crystal graphene on copper foils.
Zheng Yan,Jian Lin,Zhiwei Peng,Zhengzong Sun,Yu Zhu,Lei Li,Changsheng Xiang,E. Loïc Samuel,Carter Kittrell,James M. Tour +9 more
TL;DR: This work should provide clear guidelines for the large-scale synthesis of wafer-scale single-crystal graphene, which is essential for the optimized graphene device fabrication.
