in this work, theoretical investigations on carbon nanotube with oxygen atom have been carried out by firstprinciplescalculations and density functional theory and hartree fock theory in 3-216 and 6-316 basis sets. theinteraction energy of the oxygen atom to a cnt is calculated. the effects of this substitutions have beeninvestigated on the during transplantation (10,0) single-walled carbon nan...

In this work, it has been investigated the Monkeypox disease which occurs in both humans and animals by infection with a double-stranded DNA virus having symptoms consisting of fever, fatigue, headache, muscle pains like flu. Tecovirimat drug can be applied prohibition monkeypox through adsorbing onto surface single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) as delivery method due to direct electron transf...

The electrical resistance of mats of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) is measured as a function of mat temperature under various helium pressures, in vacuum and in atmospheric air. The objective of this paper is to study the thermal stability of SWNTs produced in a helium arc discharge in the experimental conditions close to natural conditions of SWNT growth in an arc, using a furnace inste...

Photoluminescence (PL) dynamics in single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) has been studied by the femtosecond excitation correlation method with a 150 fs time resolution. The SWNT samples were synthesized by different methods and suspended in gelatin films or D2O solutions. The PL dynamics of SWNTs depends on the local environment surrounding the SWNTs rather than the synthesis methods. The ver...

A new poly(N-vinylcarbazole)-covalently grafted single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT-PVK) hybrid material was synthesized by an in situ anionic polymerization reaction of N-vinylcarbazole and the negatively charged SWNTs. Incorporation of the PVK moieties onto the SWNTs' surface considerably improves the solubility and processability of SWNTs. At the same level of linear transmission, the SWNT-PVK...

Different catalyst formulations and reaction conditions have been used to test the validity of a hypothesis that tries to elucidate the mechanism of single-walled nanotube (SWNT) formation by CO disproportionation over a highly selective cobalt-molybdenum catalyst. This model proposed an intrinsic dependence between the selectivity of the catalysts toward SWNT and the stabilization of Co specie...

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are dispersed in water via wrapping with short segments of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA). Small angle neutron scattering suggests a power-law exponent that is consistent with clustered nanotubes and hence marginal stability. The SWNT-ssDNA complex is used to stabilize dispersions of hydrophilic colloidal particles with the nanotubes adhered to the surface of...

Leveraging the unique properties of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) intramolecular junctions (IMJs) in innovative nanodevices and next-generation nanoelectronics requires controllable, repeatable, and large-scale preparation, together with rapid identification and comprehensive characterization of such structures. Here we demonstrate SWNT IMJs through directly growing ultralong SWNTs on tr...

Peapods present a model system for studying the properties of dimensionally constrained crystal structures, whose dynamical properties are very important. We have recently studied the rotational dynamics of C(60) molecules confined inside single walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) by analyzing the intermediate frequency mode lattice vibrations using near-infrared Raman spectroscopy. The rotation of C...

This study investigates the aqueous stability of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) in the presence of natural organic matter (NOM). MWNTs were readily dispersed as an aqueous suspension in both model NOM (Suwannee River NOM (SR-NOM)) solutions and natural surface water (actual Suwannee River water with unaltered NOM background), which remained stable for over 1 month. Microscopic analyses s...
