Abstract

Polycationic water-soluble metallomacrocycles possessing 12 positive charges that facilitate ionic coordination with the carboxylate moieties of Oxi-SWNTs form a nanotube composite en route to tailored electronic properties. The multiple ionic pair interactions between the positively charged metallohexamers and carboxylate modified SWNT are evidenced by TEM and AFM images.
