title: Purification and separation of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs).
abstract: Purification or separation of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is one of the most fundamental steps before they are used for research and technological applications. Based on the difference of their physical and chemical properties, separation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) can be categorized into three groups: length separation, metallic and semiconducting tubes separation and chirality separation. In this review, we first briefly review the purification of CNTs and then focus on the different methods for the separation of CNTs.
