“…One-dimensional heterostructures coupled with SWCNTs have attracted tremendous attention recently. − The use of CNTs as hosts has been widely demonstrated to encapsulate various guests in the cavity, such as molecules, − clusters, − picoperovskites, , and unusual atomic chains/crystals. ,− These fascinating findings have elaborately clarified the templating and shielding effects, allowing access to the unseen crystal structures ,, and dynamic events, ,,,− and improving electrical performance. − Moreover, the monolayer of graphite carbon of SWCNTs has also been proved to be transparent to the inner guests, which enables the guests to modulate the electronic surface structure of SWCNTs through host–guest charge communication. ,, However, the highly carbophilic metals such as W and Mo which tend to exhibit strong metal–carbon interactions , were rarely studied previously. The strong carbide-formatting elements (W, Mo) could exhibit strong interactions with carbon and result in a considerable charge communication with the host SWCNTs, providing a nondestructive way to homogeneously modify the electronic surface of SWCNTs.…”
