Enrichment of SWNT species with chemical approaches and mechanism investigation by Pan, Xiaoyong

“…A series of pyrene derivatives were synthesized and their separation effects on SWNTs based on the electronic properties and diameters have been demonstrated. To overcome the problem enforced by the poor dispersion with the amide-functionalized pyrene derivatives, a series of Polymethacrylates with pendant aromatic functional groups were investigated for their selectivity in SWNTs separation. …”

Entrapping of inclusions within carbon nanotubes during catalytic decomposition of C2H4 on a “thick” nickel film by Li, Feng Ji, Zhang, Sam, Sun, Geng Zhi, Kong, Jun Hua, Rawat, R. S., Ilyas, Usman, Li, Bo

“…It was found that pretreating of the nickel film resulted in lots of small nanoparticles extruding on the surface, among big ones, serving as seeds for the growth of tubes. The inner walls of a few tubes were sealed internally by multiple elongated “beads-like,” “bullet-shaped” or “needle-shaped” nickel inclusions. …”
