摘要
We show creation of paperlike thin film (Buckypaper) consisting of pseudo-two-dimensional network of boron-doped single-walled carbon nanotubes (B-SWNTs) within weakly intertube van der Waals coupling (IVDWC) state. It was formed by sufficiently dissolving as-grown ropes of B-SWNTs and densely assembling them on silicon substrate. We find that superconducting transition temperature (T-c) of 8 K under absent pressure can be induced up to 19 K by applying a small pressure to the film and that a frequency in the radial breathing phonon drastically increases with applying pressure. Discussion about IVDWC and distribution of B-SWNTs diameter imply the strong correlation. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3242016]
