Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNTs) are considered as promising candidates for future electronics. However, these perspectives are seriously hampered by the concerns associated with the formation of both semiconducting/metallic nanotubes for most of the synthetic protocols developed so far. We have developed a new CVD-related approach for the synthesis of SWCNTs , using self-assembled monolayers of metallic complexes as pre-catalysts. This allows for diluted SWCNTs mats to be obtained, allowing for an easy removal of metallic nanotubes using the IBM process.
Recently, we developed the use of bimetallic Prussian Blue analogues as pre-catalysts. This allows for some “in growth” control of the characteristics of the obtained SWCNTs to be observed.
