For the first time, using scanning probe microscopy, the supramolecular structures of terbium porphyrin double-decker complexes were observed on single-walled carbon nanotubes surfaces, where the molecules formed a well-ordered self-assembled array.

AbstractPd is widely used in producing electrodes to single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT). However up to now its ability to form ohmic contacts to SWNTs was not employed in scanning probe microscopy (SPM). Here we present a study of SWNTs with Pd electrodes by SPM using Pd-coated tips. SWNTs were selectively grown on oxidized silicon substrates by low pressure CVD method. Pd electrodes were prepared to SWNTs to fabricate two terminal structures for SWNTs resistance measurements. It is shown that SPM Kelvin mode is a reliable technique for SWNT detection on insulating substrate. Contact potential difference between Pd electrode and SWNT is measured using the Kelvin mode.

AbstractSingle-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are emerging as an important new class of electronic materials. Both metallic and semiconducting SWNTs have electrical properties that rival or exceed the best metals or semiconductors known. In this article, we review recent transport and scanning probe experiments that investigate the electrical properties of SWNTs.We address the fundamental scattering mechanisms in SWNTs, both in linear response and at high bias.We also discuss the nature and properties of contacts to SWNTs. Finally, we discuss device performance issues and potential applications in electronics and sensing.

We systematically investigate the relationships between structural and electronic effects of finite size zigzag or armchair carbon nanotubes of various diameters and lengths, starting from a molecular template of varying shape and diameter.
