Abstract

Tuning the electronics of nanotubes: Electron-accepting 11,11,12,12-tetracyano-9,10-anthraquinodimethane (TCAQ) nanotweezers endowed with a carboxylic acid-containing dendrimeric moiety form exceptionally stable n-/p-type dispersions with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) in water. Upon photoexcitation, the nanohybrids undergo a less common electron transfer from the SWCNTs to the TCAQ nanotweezers.
