Versatile formation of CdSe nanoparticle-single walled carbon nanotube hybrid structures.
Pyridine-protected CdSe nanoparticles decorated SWNTs spontaneously, producing a large loading of CdSe nanoparticles on the SWNTs. The absorption spectrum of this hybrid material reflects those of the components. CdSe nanoparticles of different diameters, core-shell nanoparticles, and nanorods were shown to decorate SWNTs this way, showing the versatility of this technique.
