13. Toward Well-Defined Carbon Nanotubes and Graphene Nanoribbons
-
Cyril Aumaitre
Abstract
Carbon nanomaterials, especially carbon nanotubes and graphene, have been among the most studied materials in the past fifteen years owing to their outstanding physcial properties. To obtain the desired properties, these nanomaterials need to be well-defined and as pure as possible, especially for electronic applications. In this chapter, we present the most promising strategies for the purification of singlewalled carbon nanotubes(SWNTs), with an emphasis on the sorting of semiconducting SWNTs using conjugated polymers, and the synthesis of graphene nanoribbons.
