Modification of carbon nanotube with poly(3-hexylthiophene) by using RF rotating plasma

Carbon nanotubes (CNT) is one of the most investigated materials before the invention of graphene.¹ Due to its unique properties, CNTs have been used in various applications include sensors, solar cells, transistors, etc.² However, it makes difficult to make nano-devices based on CNTs at a large scale. For this reason, formation of composite with conducting polymers is a good way for modification of CNT.³ In this study, CNT was modificated with poly(3-hexylthiophene) by using RF rotating plasma. The obtained modified graphene particles were characterized with FTIR, SEM-EDS, XRD and TGA methods.
