  • Title: Noncovalent interactions of molecules with single walled carbon nanotubes.
    Author: Britz DA, Khlobystov AN.
    Journal: Chem Soc Rev; 2006 Jul; 35(7):637-59. PubMed ID: 16791335.
    Abstract:
    In this critical review we survey non-covalent interactions of carbon nanotubes with molecular species from a chemical perspective, particularly emphasising the relationship between the structure and dynamics of these structures and their functional properties. We demonstrate the synergistic character of the nanotube-molecule interactions, as molecules that affect nanotube properties are also altered by the presence of the nanotube. The diversity of mechanisms of molecule-nanotube interactions and the range of experimental techniques employed for their characterisation are illustrated by examples from recent reports. Some practical applications for carbon nanotubes involved in non-covalent interactions with molecules are discussed.
