    Gamma-irradiated and functionalized single wall nanotubes

    No full text
    The electrical and mechanical properties of paper made of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) were studied after a two-step treatment: (1) gamma-irradiation and then (2) chemical functionalization with SOCl2. Each of the steps affected the properties of the NT-paper increasing considerably its Young modulus and its electrical conductivity This is reflected in optical absorption and Raman spectra, which show a change in the electronic structure after chemical functionalization.
