Coalescence of carbon nanotubes while preserving the chiral angles

Abstract Atomically precise coalescence of graphitic nanocarbon molecules is one of the most challenging reactions in sp 2 carbon chemistry. Here, we demonstrate that two carbon nanotubes with the same chiral indices (n, m) are efficiently coalesced into a single (2n, 2 m) nanotube with preserved ch...
