Mauricio Terrones,Nicole Grobert,José Olivares,J. P. Zhang,Humberto Terrones,K. Kordatos,Wen-Kuang Hsu,J. P. Hare,P.D. Townsend,Kosmas Prassides,Anthony K. Cheetham,Harold W. Kroto,David R. M. Walton +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for generating aligned carbon nanotubes by pyrolysis of 2-amino-4,6-dichloro-s-triazine over thin films of a cobalt catalyst patterned on a silica substrate by laser etching is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of electron donor states in N-doped carbon nanotubes
Richard Czerw,Mauricio Terrones,Jean-Christophe Charlier,Xavier Blase,B. Foley,R. Kamalakaran,Nicole Grobert,Humberto Terrones,D. Tekleab,P.M. Ajayan,Werner J. Blau,Manfred Rühle,David L. Carroll +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, pyridine-like N structures are observed to be responsible for the metallic behavior and prominent features near the Fermi level, which could pave the way to real molecular heterojunction devices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Junctions by Joining Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Mauricio Terrones,Florian Banhart,Nicole Grobert,Jean-Christophe Charlier,Humberto Terrones,Pulickel M. Ajayan +5 more
TL;DR: Observations are supported by molecular dynamics simulations which show that the creation of vacancies and interstitials induces the formation of junctions involving seven- or eight-membered carbon rings at the surface between the tubes.

Selective Attachment of Gold Nanoparticles to Nitrogen-Doped Carbon Nanotubes
Kuiyang Jiang,A. Eitan,Linda S. Schadler,Pulickel M. Ajayan,Richard W. Siegel,Nicole Grobert,Martine Mayne,Marisol Reyes-Reyes,Humberto Terrones,Mauricio Terrones +9 more
TL;DR: Gold nanoparticles were selectively attached to chemically functionalized surface sites on nitrogen-doped carbon (CNx) nanotubes by electrostatic interaction between carboxyl groups on the chemically oxidized nanotube surface and polyelectrolyte chains as discussed by the authors.
