Influence of local strain caused by cycloaddition on the band gap control of functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes

Fine control of the band gap of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) has been achieved by the functionalization with dibromoalkanes, namely, 1,3-dibromopropane (1a), 1,4-dibromobutane (1b), 1,5-dibromopentane (1c), and 1,8-bis(bromomethyl)naphthalene (1d). Red-shifted photoluminescence (PL) peaks...

Sumario:Fine control of the band gap of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) has been achieved by the functionalization with dibromoalkanes, namely, 1,3-dibromopropane (1a), 1,4-dibromobutane (1b), 1,5-dibromopentane (1c), and 1,8-bis(bromomethyl)naphthalene (1d). Red-shifted photoluminescence (PL) peaks observed at 1215–1242 nm were assigned to the local band gaps of the chemically functionalized SWNTs 2a, 2b, 2c, and 2d, respectively. Density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT calculations for 2a–2d suggest that “local strain” induced by cycloaddition plays an important role in tuning the local band gap energies of functionalized SWNTs.
