This talk will address large volume preparative methods for separating and sorting carbon nanotubes by their electronic structures (metal and semiconductors) and further by their band-gaps (semiconducting SWNTs). Basics of carbon nanotube chemistry will be introduced and how this chemistry is utilized for manipulation of electronic structure of SWNTs and density-induced separation of SWNTs will be discussed. Lastly, recent results of applications of separated SWNTs for high efficient solar funnel and nano-electronic devices will be introduced. |
