Optical absorption response of chemically modified single-walled carbon nanotubes upon ultracentrifugation in various dispersants

Arc discharge single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) were modified through different oxidative treatments and functionalization reactions. The modified SWCNT powders were dispersed in four different aqueous media and purified by ultracentrifugation. Extinction coefficients of the modified SWCNTs de...
