Abstract
We report an improved chromatographic Purification of soluble single-walled carbon nanotubes (s-SWNTs) using gel permeation chromatography. Three frac tions are separated by gel permeation chromatography, and the first fractio n contains 74% of the s-SWNTs as detected by atomic force microscopy and UV and near-infrared spectroscopy.
