For many practical applications of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), the fabrication of SWNT superstructures with well-defined morphology, density, and direction are highly required to enhance the physical properties of SWNTs collectively or to make new functionalities. Block copolymers exhibit rich phase behavior and have been extensively used as excellent templates for various nanostructured materials. It is, therefore, highly desirable to use the rich phase behavior of block copolymers to fabricate well-controlled SWNT superstructures, which may provide an easy and scalable fabrication method. To make this approach successful, it is essential to understand the phase behavior of polymeric systems when SWNTs are incorporated into the systems. In this talk, neutron and x-ray scattering investigations on the SWNT-induced phase behavior of Pluronic block copolymers will be discussed. |
