Programing optical properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes with benzoyl peroxide derivatives of tailored chemical characteristics
Semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have great potential for optoelectronics and photonics, further enhanced by covalent functionalization. However, scalable and controlled surface modification is challenging due to complex methodologies and unstable reagents. Benzoyl peroxide (BPO) has emerged as a simple alternative for introducing luminescent defects into SWCNTs. Yet, the lack of understanding of its radical chemistry limits precise defect engineering using BPOs. This is a major obstacle to the effective application of BPO in chemistry, despite its widespread use as a radical initiator. We present a thorough investigation into the radical chemistry of self-synthesized BPOs for functionalizing polymer-wrapped (6,5) and (7,5) SWCNTs in non-polar solvents, providing critical insights into the decomposition of BPO and its analogs. By varying the electronic and steric properties of typically unavailable BPO derivatives, we demonstrate tunability over the photoluminescence characteristics of SWCNTs, allowing control over defect density and light emission wavelength. This toolbox of BPO derivatives, created with simple radical chemistry and accessible organic precursors, alongside clarified structure-property relationships, facilitates effective implementation of BPO in chemical transformations and meticulous engineering of luminescent defects in SWCNTs for optoelectronic applications. Notably, this research offers insights into why SWCNTs modified with electron-deficient reactants provide the best optical characteristics.
