Defects and doping in Single-Wall Carbon Nanotubes (SWNTs) by (electro-) chemical methods is a highly important topic for future applications of SWNTs. Previous indirect all-optical techniques hypothesise charge carrier localisation in SWNTs due to adjacent AuCl₃ molecules, which is indicated by changing exciton dynamics ¹. Here, we present direct quantitative investigations of chemical p-doping by means of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), using a spin count reference sample. We estimated the p-doping concentrations on our SWNTs over a wide range, gaining new insight into the widely discussed topic of charge carrier confinement.
