Journal ArticleDOI
Separation of single-walled carbon nanotubes on silica gel. Materials morphology and Raman excitation wavelength affect data interpretation.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that relative peak intensity changes in Raman spectra can be caused by morphological changes in SWNT bundling based on differing flocculation or deposition methods, underscoring the care needed in assessing efficacies inSWNT enrichment and the prerequisite use of multiple excitation wavelengths and similar flocculating methods in comparative analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spontaneous assembly of organic thiocyanates on gold sufaces. Alternative precursors for gold thiolate assemblies.
TL;DR: Thiocyanates, easily synthesized stable thiol derivatives, can be directly assembled on gold surfaces with no auxiliary reagents required and leaves a similar gold thiolate structure as seen in typical thiol self-assembled monolayers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Asphalt-Derived High Surface Area Activated Porous Carbons for Carbon Dioxide Capture
Almaz S. Jalilov,Gedeng Ruan,Chih-Chau Hwang,Desmond Schipper,Josiah J. Tour,Yilun Li,Huilong Fei,Errol L. G. Samuel,James M. Tour +8 more
TL;DR: The porous carbon materials from asphalt have excellent properties for reversibly capturing CO2 at the well-head during the extraction of natural gas, a naturally occurring high pressure source of CO2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controlled Modulation of Electronic Properties of Graphene by Self-Assembled Monolayers on SiO2 Substrates
TL;DR: A controlled doping of graphene was realized with a threshold voltage ranging from -18 to 30 V, and the SAMs are covalently bonded to the SiO(2) surface rather than the graphene surface, thereby producing minimal effects on the mobility of the graphene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theoretical efficiency of nanostructured graphene-based photovoltaics.
Virginia Yong,James M. Tour +1 more
TL;DR: Graphene renders a credible material for the construction of next-generation flexible solar-energy-conversion devices that are low-cost, high-efficiency, thermally stable, environmentally friendly, and lightweight.
