Abstract:Although the supramolecular structure of porphyrin polymers on flat surfaces (i.e., mica and HOPG) has been extensively studied, the self-assembly arrays of porphyrin polymers on the SWNT (as curved nanocarbon surfaces) have yet to be fully identified and/or investigated, especially using microscopic imaging techniques, i.e., scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). This study reports the identification of the supramolecular structure of po… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
