Abstract:
Over the last years the applications of chemically modified carbon nanotubes have
considerably expanded and progressed in both material and biomedical science. A vast
number of SWNTs based materials have been rationally designed and synthesized to
combine specific properties of different matters in a single nanoplatform. However,
there is still plenty of room for the realization of smart SWNTs composites constituted
by molecular devices able to respond to external stimuli with a degree of "intelligence".
