A strategy for the functionalization of single-walled carbon nanotubes is reported. The synthesis involved the conversion of fluorinated single-walled carbon nanotubes to the thiolated derivative assisted by phosphorous pentasulfide. The thiol group is then quantitatively oxidized to the sulfonic ac

## Abstract Individual singleβwalled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) were grown by a CVD method on thin SiO~2~ films using iron and carbon monoxide as the catalyst material and the carbon source, respectively. Catalyst particles were produced via physical vapor deposition (PVD) as an aerosol using a hotβ
In this paper we report on the synthesis and characterization of electrocatalytic conjugates of tetraamino cobalt (II) phthalocyanine and single walled carbon nanotubes (CoTAPc-SWCNT-linked) for use as electrode surface modifiers. FTIR, UV-vis and Raman spectroscopies were used to ascertain the chem
We report a simplified production method for single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) by hot-filament assisted chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) using pure alcohol vapor (ethanol, methanol and 2-propanol) as a carbon source. Under the optimized conditions, high-purity SWNTs are synthesized for the first
