“…Even though some dispersing agents display a selective dispersion for metallic or semiconducting SWNTs to some extent, the achieved dispersions are still mixtures of them with various chiral indices. For effective sorting of individually dispersed SWNTs, researchers turn to gel chromatography [40,41], two-phase aqueous extraction [42,43], dielectrophoresis [44,45], and density gradient ultracentrifugation (DGU) [46,47]. Among these techniques, DGU has the advantages of easy operation, large-scale separation, and universal utility for various SWNTs over the others, making it the most popular technique to separate SWNTs in line with their diameter, electronic type, chirality, or even-handedness.…”
