We report on the optical properties of fabricated nanohybrid structures containing Au nanorods and functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes in aqueous solutions. In particular, the absorption spectra of these hybrid materials are studied as a function of the concentration of the functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes as well as the evolution time following preparation. The absorption spectra show a red shift of the longitudinal plasmon mode of the Au nanorods along with the emergence of broadened structures at wavelengths between 1000 and 1100 nm. These results, supported by TEM images, indicate the self-assembly of the Au nanorods forming on the sidewalls of the functionalized SWNTs driven by polyelectrolyte interactions.

A facile solution-chemical route was reported to deposit and arrange palladium (Pd) nanoparticles on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) using sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as an organic soft template. SDS was previously formed supramolecular self-assembly on the walls of SWCNTs, which may act as adsorption sites of Pd (II) ions on SWCNTs. The Pd nanoparticles reduced by photo-reduction and formed one-dimensionally ordered arrangement on the surface of SWCNTs with a veriety of helices and tilted angles. Pd nanoparticles have an average size of 3 nm. The structure (distance, helix and tilted angle) of the ordered arrangements were determined by the supramolecular self-assembly of SDS wrapped on SWCNTs.
