Controlling the optical properties of carbon nanotubes with organic colour-centre quantum defects
Abstract
Previously unwelcome, defects are emerging as a new frontier of research, providing a molecular focal point to study the coupling of electrons, excitons, phonons and spin in low-dimensional materials. This opportunity is particularly intriguing in semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes, in which covalently bonding organic functional groups to the sp2 carbon lattice can produce tunable sp3 quantum defects that fluoresce brightly in the...
