SummaryNanocomposites consisting of one-dimensional (1D) crystals of the cationic conductors CuI, CuBr and AgBr inside singlewalled carbon nanotubes, mainly (n, 0), were obtained using the capillary technique. 1D crystal structure models were proposed based on the high resolution transmission electron microscopy performed on a FEI Titan 80-300 at 80 kV with aberration correction. According to the models and image simulations there are two modifications of 1D crystal: hexagonal close-packed bromine (iodine) anion sublattice (growth direction <001>) and 1D crystal cubic structure (growth direction <112>) compressed transversely to the nanotube (D m ∼1.33 nm) axis. Tentatively this kind of 1D crystal can be considered as monoclinic. One modification of the anion sublattice reversibly transforms into the other inside the nanotube, probably initiated by electron beam heating. As demonstrated by micrographs, copper or silver cations can occupy octahedral positions or are statistically distributed across two tetrahedral positions. A 1DAgBr@SWNT (18, 0; 19, 0) pseudoperiodic 'lattice distortion' is revealed resulting from convolution of the nanotube wall function image with 1D cubic crystal function image.

“…For example, KI and CsI crystallized in nanotubes from the molten phase show no significant structural deviation from their bulk structure, but a detailed TEM analysis shows a wide range of defects in the 1D crystallites including plane faults, small twists, and vacancies or interstitial defects [84]. CuI in nanotubes forms a hexagonal structure similar to that of the bulk material but slightly distorted [85]. The [00l]-direction of CuI lattice coincides with the axis of the nanotube.…”

“…35 To investigate the interaction between the encapsulated PS chain and the SWNTs, we recorded the Raman spectra in the radial breath modes (RBMs) region, as shown in Figure 4. Remarkable difference in RBM region of the Raman spectra in the range 120 cm −1 < < 200 cm −1 can be observed for the SWNTs and the PS@SWNTs, which is in consistent with the literature about encapsulation of the SWNTs with foreign materials.…”

In this paper, a novel molecular wire comprising an isolated straight polystyrene (PS) chain encapsulated by a single-walled carbon nantube (SWNT) was prepared. The interaction of the PS chain with the SWNTs was systematically characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy.
