As-produced samples of HiPco single-walled carbon nanotubes were subject to microwave radiation treatment, a process which has been reported to selectively destroy metallic nanotubes, leaving samples of predominantly semiconducting nanotubes. Raman measurements of samples exposed for differing durat...
