Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We succeeded in the improvement in the purity of semiconducting single wall carbon nanotubes by removing metallic carbon nanotubes using gel. Although metallic carbon nanotubes contaminated in the semiconducting nanotube sample could not detected by optical measurement, after the treatment, we could detect the metallic nanotubes. This result indicates that it is possible to determine the very high purity of semiconducting carbon nanotubes. Because the recovery yield was not sufficient to determine the purity precisely, further examination were needed. While, we found another method that enable us to concentrate and extract metallic carbon nanotubes. The method could improve the purity evaluation method developed in this study.
