Different Chiral Selective Recognition/Extraction of (n,m)Single-walled Carbon Nanotubes Using Copolymers Carrying a Carbazole or Fluorene Moiety

摘要

We describe the finding that copolymers having a long-double chain carbazole or fluorene group connected to benzothiadiazole with thiophene linkers show a different chiral selective (n,m)single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) solubilization behavior which was revealed by 2D photoluminescence and vis-near IR spectroscopies. We also carried out molecular mechanical simulations to understand the difference in the chiral selective solubilization behavior.
