Formation mechanism of fullerene peapods and coaxial tubes: a path to large scale synthesis
Open accessAbstract
A method to functionalize nanotubes by filling could enable the creation of new materials for molecular scale devices. Here we report the synthesis of chains of C60 molecules inside single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). C60 molecules are seen to deposit on the surfaces of SWNTs from the gas phase and to enter the tubes, ostensibly via defects. They subsequently self-assemble into Van der Waals interacting chains, called `bucky-peapods.' Upon high temperature annealing, encapsulated C60 molecules coalesce into interior tubes, forming pairs of nested graphene cylinders. The synthesis methods described herein suggest a more general way in which nanotubes may be functionalized.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
