By dissolving the aggregation of SiCNTs using sodium cholate as an anionic surfactant, the cluster size decreased and the dispersibility improved with the increasing surfactant concentration. The macroscopic and microscopic photoluminescence properties were evaluated using excitation lights with variable spot size. The emission intensity of SiCNTs increased with the decreasing cluster size, owing to the improvement of the dispersibility, and the emission intensity of the well-dispersed SiCNTs increased superlinearly with the excitation density. These results indicate the presence of SiCNTs that recombine non-radiatively in the cluster, and the effect of their NTs is suppressed as the cluster size is reduced.}, pages = {118771-1--118771-5}, title = {Effect of anionic surfactant on dispersibility and luminescence of SiC nanotubes}, volume = {245}, year = {2022} }
