Abstract:The one-dimensional structure of single-walled carbon nanotubes renders these materials ideal for optoelectronic applications as they can transport electrons or holes with quasi-ballistic features and as they display optical absorption and near-infrared emission (thanks to van Hove singularities). Nevertheless, functionalities can to be added to nanotube to both improve and control the physical properties. To this aim, chromophore encapsulation into host single-walled carbon nanotubes allows to create hybrid n… 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.
