Vertical self-assembly of modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes on gold surfaces induced by chitosan and Tween.
Multiwalled carbon nanotubes modified with 2-aminoethanethiol (MWNT-AET) were vertically self-assembled on gold electrodes with the assistance of chitosan and Tween. According to AFM and cyclic voltammetric determinations the best results were achieved using chitosan.
