Single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) heterostructures have shown great potential in catalysis, magnetism, and nanofluidics, which host SWCNTs with certain conductivity (metallic or semiconducting) are highly required. Herein, inspired by the large molecular weight redox properties of polyoxometalate (POM) clusters, we reported selective separation POM encapsulated metallic (POM@m-SWCNTs) a uniform diameter through density gradient ultracentrifugation (DGU). The confined POMs increased SWCNT amplified nanotubes' difference, thus greatly lowering centrifugal force (70,000g) DGU. With this strategy, series POM@m-SWCNTs ∼1.2 nm high purity were sorted. mechanism supported theoretical experimental evidence showed that m-SWCNTs depended on not only nanotube/cluster size but also SWCNTs. smallest 1.2 m-SWCNT can exactly accommodate 0.9 nm-{Mo6} cluster exhibited maximum electron transfer to inner clusters; thus, intertube π–π stacking such was loosened, leading preferential dispersion into individual ones partitioning uppermost layer after As proof-of-concept application, sorting strategy extended separate heavy-element 238U-encapsulated m-SWCNTs. phase-pure, tiny (1–2.5 nm) U4O9 crystals atomic vacancy clusters fabricated growth kinetic control.

Monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are an ideal 2D platform for studying a wide variety electronic properties and potential applications due to their chemical diversity. Similarly, single-walled TMD nanotubes (SW-TMDNTs)-seamless cylinders rolled-up monolayers-are 1D materials that can exhibit tunable depending on both chirality composition. However, much less has been explored about geometrical structures variations instability under ambient conditions. Here, the structural diversity SW-TMDNTs templated by boron nitride (BNNTs) is reported. The outer surfaces inner cavities BNNTs promote stabilize coaxial growth with various diameters, including few-nanometers-wide species. chiral indices (n,m) individual SW-MoS2 NTs assigned high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, statistical analyses reveals broad distribution ranging from zigzag armchair configurations. Furthermore, this methodology be applied synthesis TMDNTs, such as selenides alloyed Mo1-x Wx S2 .

By changing the diameter of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), phase internal phosphorus could be adjusted, which was testified by spherical-chromatic aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy. Phosphorus inside a double-walled CNT (P@DWCNT) delivers stable capacity 837 mA h g–1 after 700 cycles at 1.0 A g–1. 155 delivered P@DWCNT when forming full cell with LiFePO4 cathode. According to in situ Raman spectrum, strain (24 GPa) on DWCNTs caused volume expansion during lithiation totally relieved along axis end delithiation process, showing high reversibility. This is because filling rate an appropriate level and are not fully filled, thus preventing from escaping further pulverization. single-walled (P@SWCNT) can only deliver limited since its single layer cannot sustain integrality multiple insertion/extraction processes Li+. Because too much deposited multiwalled (P@MWCNT) sample external tends break off rapidly upon cycling, P@MWCNT shows fast degradation. The anodes thoroughly studied galvanostatic intermittent titration pseudocapacitance investigations reveal size-dependent confining effect.
