TEM characterization of Au-nanorod terminated SWCNT hetrojunctions. (a,b) TEM images showing SWCNT’s with regiospecific Au-nanoparticle functionalization at their termini. NPs are bordered with yellow circles. (c) TEM image showing a short SWCNT between Au-nanorods. Right image displays an enlarged view of the heterojunction from the image on the left. (d,e) TEM images showing long SWCNT’s between Au-nanorods. (f) TEM images showing Au-nanorods perpendicularly connected to the SWCNT terminus. All images are shown with their respective scale bars.
