Abstract

We have demonstrated near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy as a particularly useful and effective technique for simultaneously probing the surface chemistry, surface molecular orientation, and electronic structure of carbon nanotubes and related nanomaterials. We have focused on the advantages of NEXAFS as an existing, complementary tool to microscopy and spectroscopy for providing localized information about nanoscale samples.
