However, the purification of s-SWCNTs with diameters larger than 1.6 nm by gel filtration has been difficult owing to the low selectivity of the conventional purification method in these large-diameter regions. We report a combination of temperature-controlled gel filtration and the gradient elution technique that we developed to enrich a high-purity s-SWCNT with a diameter as large as 1.9 nm. The thin-film transistor (TFT) device using the 1.9-nm-diameter SWCNT shows an average channel mobility of 23.7 cm2V^−1s^−1, which is much higher than those of conventional SWCNT-TFTs with smaller-diameters of 1.5 and 1.4 nm.}, pages = {065102--065102}, title = {Purification of 1.9-nm-diameter semiconducting single-wall carbon nanotubes by temperature-controlled gel-column chromatography and its application to thin-film transistor devices}, volume = {56}, year = {2017} }
