Journal ArticleDOI
Noncovalent Sidewall Functionalization of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes for Protein Immobilization
TL;DR: Single-walled carbon nanotubes are molecular wires that exhibit interesting structural, mechanical, electrical, and electromechanical properties that make for an ideal miniaturized sensor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Noncovalent functionalization of carbon nanotubes for highly specific electronic biosensors
Robert Chen,Sarunya Bangsaruntip,Katerina A. Drouvalakis,Nadine Wong Shi Kam,Moonsub Shim,Yiming Li,Woong Kim,Paul J. Utz,Hongjie Dai +8 more
TL;DR: An exploration of single-walled carbon nanotubes is presented as a platform for investigating surface–protein and protein–protein binding and developing highly specific electronic biomolecule detectors for detecting clinically important biomolecules such as antibodies associated with human autoimmune diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functionalization of Carbon Nanotubes for Biocompatibility and Biomolecular Recognition
TL;DR: The streptavidin/biotin system is used to investigate the adsorption behavior of proteins on the sides of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and the results have implications to the nanotube biocompatibility 11 issue and specificity of potential bioelectronic devices based on nanot tubes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal coating on suspended carbon nanotubes and its implication to metal–tube interaction
TL;DR: In this paper, transmission electron microscopy studies reveal that Ti, Ni and Pd coatings on the suspended tubes are continuous and quasi-continuous, resulting in nanotube-supported metal nanowire structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular photodesorption from single-walled carbon nanotubes
Robert Chen,Nathan R. Franklin,Jing Kong,Jien Cao,Thomas W. Tombler,Yuegang Zhang,Hongjie Dai +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the photoelectrical properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) led to the discovery of photoinduced molecular desorption phenomena in nanotube molecular wires.
