Enhancing photosensitivity of carbon nanotubes by modification with metal containing block copolymers

Session S3 - Nano- and Bio-systems: abstract no. O3-4Carbon nanotubes exhibit highly promising potentials in applications such as optoelectronics, advanced composites, sensing, and biomedics. They have been demonstrated to be the key materials in various optoelectronic devices such as field effect transistors, photo switching, light sensing, and light emitters. In order to disperse carbon nanotubes in solution, chemical modification of nanotube surface or surfactants have to be used. Here, we report the use of a multifunctional metal containing block copolymers for dispersing carbon nanotubes and modification of their photosensitivity....postprintThe 12th International Conference on Electronic and Related Properties of Organic Systems (ERPOS-12), Vilnius, Lithuania, 11-13 July 2011.
