Controlled carboxylic acid introduction: a route to highly purified oxidised single-walled carbon nanotubes
TL;DR: In this article, a chemical treatment for preparing high purity selectively oxidised SWNTs while preserving optical/electronic properties of the material has been developed, which paves the way for the preparation of high purity, covalently functionalised SW NTs enhancing their potential for use in high-performance optical and electronic applications.

A New Theoretical Model of a Carbon Nanotube Strain Sensor
TL;DR: In this paper, a new theoretical model of a carbon nanotubes (CNT) strain sensor is obtained by applying the polarized Raman properties of CNTs, which calculates the synthetic contributions of Raman spectra from the CNT in random directions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coal/PAN interconnected carbon nanofibers with excellent energy storage performance and electrical conductivity
TL;DR: In this paper, a new oxidizing agent was used to treat raw coal and got an enhancement of the solubility in organic solvents, making it possible to prepare carbon nanofibers by using coal and electrospinning.

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of extensive purification on oxidized multiwalled carbon nanotube surface composition was studied through the characterization and differentiation of the actual surface submitted to three oxidation methods: microwave-assisted acid oxidation, hydrogen peroxide reflux, and Fenton reaction.

Raman Spectrum of Graphite
F. Tuinstra,J. L. Koenig +1 more
TL;DR: Raman spectra are reported from single crystals of graphite and other graphite materials as mentioned in this paper, and the Raman intensity of this band is inversely proportional to the crystallite size and is caused by a breakdown of the k-selection rule.

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.

Unusually High Thermal Conductivity of Carbon Nanotubes
TL;DR: An unusually high value, lambda approximately 6600 W/m K, is suggested for an isolated (10,10) nanotube at room temperature, comparable to the thermal conductivity of a hypothetical isolated graphene monolayer or diamond.
