Abstract
A method for bulk separation of single-walled tubular fullerenes () based on helicity is provided wherein a solution or suspension of the single-walled tubular fullerenes () is flowed onto a crystalline or highly oriented substrate (). The single-walled tubular fullerenes () that flow onto the substrate () have a respective longitudinal axis that is aligned with the flow direction (). The direction of flow () is oriented at a predetermined angle with respect to a lattice axis () of the substrate () for energetically favoring adsorption of a respective plurality of single-walled fullerenes () having a tubular contour and a selected helicity. Subsequently, the adsorbed single-walled tubular fullerenes () of the selected chirality are removed from the substrate ().
