Spectroscopy of single-walled carbon nanotubes in aqueous surfactant dispersion
Optical studies of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) dispersed in aqueous surfactant suspensions have made significant progress since the discovery of their bright band-gap fluorescence in the near-infrared region [1]. In this article we report the systematic investigation of the effect of chemical purification and oxidation on the spectroscopic properties of SWNTs. The SWNTs samples we pr...

متن کاملDispersion of Carbon Nanotubes in Liquids
Production processes for carbon nanotubes often produce mixtures of solid morphologies that are mechanically entangled or that self-associate into aggregates. Entangled or aggregated nanoparticles often need to be dispersed into fluid suspensions in order to develop materials that have unique mechanical characteristics or transport properties. This paper reviews the effects of milling, ultrason...
متن کاملNovel Ultrasonic Dispersion of Carbon Nanotubes
A double ultrasonic source has been shown to dramatically increase dispersion efficiency of carbon nanotubes. Thermal measurements of dispersing fluid only show temperature rises commensurate with the power levels of the two ultrasonic sources; which is validated by predictions of statistical energy analysis (SEA) based on wave superposition principles. In this paper, nonlinear wave resonance c...
متن کاملDispersion of single-walled carbon nanotubes modified with poly-l-tyrosine in water
In this study, complexes composed of poly-l-tyrosine (pLT) and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) were produced and the dispersibility of the pLT/SWCNT complexes in water by measuring the ζ potential of the complexes and the turbidity of the solution were investigated. It is found that the absolute value of the ζ potential of the pLT/SWCNT complexes is as high as that of SWCNTs modified wi...
