| Research Abstract |
In order to pioneer an untrodden field of carbon-based nano-bio research, an originally developed experimental-method of injecting atoms and/or molecules into nanospaces in gas-phase plasmas was extended to the case of liquid-phase plasmas, where biomaterials can stably exist . As a result, we have realized the disposition control of various kinds of electronic states charge- and/or spin-exploited atoms, a novel class of fullerenes such as atom encapsulated C_<60>, biomolecules DNA, ionic liquids, colloids, and so on inside the nanospaces of single-walled and double-walled carbon nanotubes, succeeding in making these super-structured nanotubes display new electronic and optical properties.
