Nanostructural control of cup-stacked carbon nanotubes with 1-benzyl-1,4-dihydronicotinamide dimer via photoinduced electron transfer.
The photoinduced electron-transfer reduction of cup-stacked carbon nanotubes (CSCNTs) with 1-benzyl-1,4-dihydronicotinamide dimer [(BNA)2] results in the electrostatic destacking of CSCNTs to afford CSCNTs with uniform size.
