Near‐Infrared Photochemistry Harnesses Excitons for Selective Guanine Functionalization of Single‐Wall Carbon Nanotubes
excitation is also effective, as shown by using 590 nm irradiation to functionalize (6,4) and (6,5) SWCNTs. This self-sensitized method yields dye-free guanine-functionalized nanotubes and, most significantly, enables selective functionalization of specific SWCNT structures in unsorted samples.
