Abstract:
We demonstrate noncovalent electrostatic and π-π interactions to assemble semiconducting single wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT)-C(60)@COP nanohybrids. The C(60)@COP light harvesting complexes bind strongly to SWCNTs due to significant π-π-stacking between C(60), the aromatic dicarbazolylacetylene moieties and the nanotube surfaces.
