Abstract
The description and understanding of the intercalation mechanism of electron donors or acceptors in single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) bundles are of critical interest for optimization and improvement of transport properties for future applications of SWNTs in electronics or energy storage. Here, we propose a novel approach based on the analysis of the state of debundling for SWNT bundles, used as a feedback for occupation sites of alkali metal atoms within the SWNT host material. Heterogeneity of the structure might be the origin of the complexity of the intercalation process in SWNTs.
