In particular, the shape and the range of the attractive van der Waals interparticle potential are determined by the number of microscopic versus mesoscopic dimensions. For single-walled nanotubes (SWNTs), where two of the dimensions are nanoscopic and one is mesoscopic, the intertube attraction is relatively short ranged, albeit very steep. The very large attraction (compared to the thermal energy, KbT) among long SWNTs leads to aggregation at different levels and constitutes a major barrier for manipulation and utilization of SWNTs. This study demonstrates that it is possible to shape the intertube potential by decorating SWNTs with end-tethered polymers. In good solvent conditions for the polymers, entropic repulsion among the tethered chains generates a free energy barrier that prevents SWNTs from approaching the attractive part of the intertube potential. Consequentially, stable dispersions of individual, well separated SWNTs can be prepared. Investigation of different chain lengths and tethering densities of the polymers as well as the interparticle potentials for nanometric versus mesoscopic particles suggests that polymer-induced steric stabilization provides a generic method for separation of SWNTs from mixtures of colloidal species, as demonstrated experimentally.

The optical characteristics of 8 and 10 were compared with those of their respective isomers, 3 and 4, the cis-vinylene contents of which were significantly lower (9–16%). Although a greater fraction of cis-CHCH linkages caused the absorption maximum (λmax) of 8 and 10 to be slightly blueshifted (by ∼3–6 nm) from that of 3 and 4, the impact of the vinylene bond geometry appeared to be negligible on their fluorescence spectra. The fluorescence quantum efficiencies of 8 and 10 were estimated to be approximately 0.25 and 0.72, respectively. Both 8 (λmax ≈ 445 or 462 nm) and 10 (λmax ≈ 480 or 506 nm) were electroluminescent, showing effective color tuning by the controlled insertion of m-phenylene moieties. The external electroluminescence quantum efficiencies were determined to be 4.26 × 10−3% for 8 and 0.63% for 10. The cis/trans-vinylene bond ratio had a great impact on the electroluminescence device performance of 8 but a much smaller impact on the performance of 10. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
