Metallic and semiconducting carbon nanotubes generally coexist in 'as-grown' materials. In this study, single-walled nanotubes are sorted using regioregular poly(3-alkylthiophene)s; rational selection of polymers, solvent and temperature allows the selective dispersion of semiconducting carbon nanotubes.
