| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our synthesis approach of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) relied on utilizing cycloparaphenylenes (CPPs) which are the fundamental unit of SWNTs in order to separate metallic and semiconducting tubes before the synthesis. As obtaining tubular structures from CPPs, fullerene guests were introduced into CPP hosts and the host-guest complexes were pyrolyzed. Electron microscopic observations revealed that the obtained sample didn’t include only amorphous structures but also tubular structures derived from SWNTs. In addition, Raman spectra displayed peaks attributed to SWNTs which possess semiconducting features, however, the fundamental unit of SWNTs employed is metallic features. Therefore, this indicated that ring structures of CPPs were decomposed during thermal treatment, generating a template for non SWNTs possessing metallic features.
