first principles calculations were carried out for investigation the novel 7-hydroxycoumarinyl gallates derivatives in gas and liquid phases using density functional theory (dft) method. computational chemistry simulations were carried out to compare calculated quantum chemical parameters for gallates derivatives. all calculations were performed using dmol3 code which is based on dft. the doubl...

We describe a film of highly aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes that acts as an excellent terahertz linear polarizer. There is virtually no attenuation (strong absorption) when the terahertz polarization is perpendicular (parallel) to the nanotube axis. From the data, the reduced linear dichrosim was calculated to be 3, corresponding to a nematic order parameter of 1, which demonstrates nea...

Near-field Raman spectroscopy with a spatial resolution of 20 nm is demonstrated by raster scanning a sharp metal tip over the sample surface. The method is used to image vibrational modes of single-walled carbon nanotubes. By combining optical and topographical signals rendered by the single-walled carbon nanotubes, we can separate near-field and far-field contributions and quantify the observ...

Electron Dynamics in Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes

We report on a dip-coating method to prepare catalyst particles (mixture of iron and cobalt) with a controlled diameter distribution on silicon wafer substrates by changing the solution's concentration and withdrawal velocity. The size and distribution of the prepared catalyst particles were analyzed by atomic force microscopy. Carbon nanotubes were grown by chemical vapor deposition on the sub...

Doubleand triple-walled carbon nanotubes (DWNTs and TWNTs) consist of coaxially-nested two and three single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). They act as the geometrical bridge between SWNTs and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), providing an ideal model for studying the coupling interactions between different shells in MWNTs. Within this context, this article comprehensively reviews various...

Peptides selected from phage-displayed libraries have been found to exhibit high-affinity binding to carbon nanotubes including single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), multi-walled carbon nanotubes, and single-walled carbon nanohorns. One unique feature of these peptides is that their amino acid sequences are rich in tryptophan and histidine residues. The aim of this study was to investigate th...

in this study, we have investigated radius dependence of hydrogen storage within armchair (n,n) single walled carbon nanotubes (swcnt) in a square arrays. to this aim, we have employed equilibrium molecular dynamics (md) simulation. our simulations results reveal that radius of carbon nanotubes are an important and influent factor in hydrogen distribution inside carbon nanotubes and consequentl...

We report a general strategy for synthesis of a large variety of metal oxide nanoparticles on different carbon nanomaterials (CNMs), including single-walled carbon nanotubes, multi-walled carbon nanotubes, and a few-layer graphene. The approach was based on the π-π interaction between CNMs and modified aromatic organic ligands, which acted as bridges connecting metal ions and CNMs. Our methods ...
