PFO-BPy wrapped single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are promising candidates for optoelectronic and solar cell applications [1]. We utilized tip-enhanced near-field microscopy (TENOM) [2] with nanometer resolution and signal enhancement to investigate the photoluminescence (PL) and Raman scattering of (6,5) SWCNT/PFO-BPy conjugates. PL images reveal the spatial homogeneity of both emission intensity and energy along individual nanotubes. Raman images indicate their local structural properties. This set of images provides detailed information on several key phenomena influencing the excited state properties of SWCNTs including the interaction with the environment, nanotube-nanotube coupling, exciton mobility and defect density. We compared the results obtained for PFO-BPy wrapped carbon nanotubes with other materials and different sample treatments.
