Résumé: The experimental approach combining high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), electron diffraction (ED) and resonant Raman spectroscopy (RRS) on the same free-standing individual carbon nanotubes (CNT) is the most efficient method to determine unambiguously the intrinsic features of the Raman-active phonons. In this paper, we review the main results obtained by the approach regarding the intrinsic features of the phonons of single-walled (SWNT) and double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWNT). First, we detail the different methods to identify the structure of SWNTs and DWNTs from the analysis of their electron diffraction patterns (EDP). In the following, we remind the principal features of the Raman response of SWNTs, unambiguously index-identified by ED. A special attention is devoted to the effect of the inter-layer interaction on the frequencies of the Raman-active phonons in index-identified DWNTs. The information obtained on index-identified SWNT and DWNT allows us to propose Raman criteria, which help identifying CNT when the ED fails to propose a single assignment. The efficiency of the Raman criteria as the complement to the ED information for the index-assignment of a few SWNTs and DWNTs is shown. The same approach to index-assign a triple-walled carbon nanotube (TWNT), by combining ED and RRS information, is reported.

Résumé: The electrophoretic transport of ions through single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) of diameters between 1.2 and 1.8 nm was studied for different monovalent chloride salts using microfluidic devices incorporating either a single or a few CNTs in parallel. The ionic conductance was found to be about one order of magnitude higher than expected from a simple electro-migration behavior without any surface effect. Importantly, the ionic conductance measured for different cations did not scale with their bulk electrophoretic mobility thus indicating a probable selective cation transport through these sub-2 nm SWCNTs. The transport of Na+ was notably found to be favored in comparison to that of Li+ and Cs+ or K+ . These results highlight the influence of steric and surface effects induced by the nano-confinement on the transport of ions through sub-2 nm SWCNTs.

Résumé: Infrared response on a carbon nanotube is weak because this homonuclear allotrope of carbon does not bear permanent dipoles. Here, we report the discovery of an exaltation of the infrared absorption response in single-walled carbon nanotubes from dye molecule interactions. A study performed on dimethylquaterthiophene confined into the hollow core of single-walled carbon nanotubes or π-stacked at the outer surface of the latter leads to a symmetry breaking, allowing us to probe interactions between both subsystems. The nature of these interactions is discussed taking into account the tube diameter. This new phenomenon opens a new route to detect weak vibrations thanks to a confinement effect.

Résumé: We report on the preparation of a hybrid nanomaterial made up of 1D filaments of an antiferromagnetic self-assembling bicopper complex encapsulated in polymer nanofibrils. The encapsulation process is achieved through the heterogeneous nucleation of the growth of polymer fibrils obtained by thermoreversible gelation as shown by calorimetry experiments. Neutron scattering experiments confirm that the filaments of a bicopper complex retain their 1D character after encapsulation in the fibrils. Superconducting quantum interference device experiments show that the bicopper complex, originally in the gapped spin state in the 3D bulk mesophase, displays a gapless behavior once encapsulated. Extended absorption fine structure and infrared results further highlight the difference in the molecular arrangement of the bicopper complex between the bulk mesophase and the encapsulated state, which may account for the magnetic behavior. This material, which is largely disordered, differs totally from the usual magnetic systems where this effect is observed only on highly crystalline systems with long-range order. Also, this hybrid material is very easy to prepare from its basic constituents and can be further processed in many ways.

Résumé: NMR spectroscopy has been established as a potent method for the detn. of foldamer structures in soln. However, the NMR techniques could be limited by averaging, so addnl. exptl. techniques are often needed to fully endorse the folding properties of a sequence. The authors have recently demonstrated that oligo-γ-peptides composed of 4-amino(methyl)-1,3-thiazole-5-carboxylic acids (ATCs) adopt an original helical fold stabilized by hydrogen bonds forming C9 pseudocycles. The main objective of the present work is to restudy the folding of ATC oligomer 1 to identify reliable FTIR and NMR structural markers that are of value for tracking the degree of organization of ATC-based peptides.

Résumé: The highly constrained b-amino acid ABOC induces different types of helices in b urea and 1:1 a/b amide oligomers. The latter can adopt 11/9- and 18/16-helical folds depending on the chain length in solution. Short peptides alternating proteinogenic a-amino acids and ABOC in a 2:1 a/b repeat pattern adopted an unprecedented and stable 12/14/14-helix. The structure was established through extensive NMR, molecular dynamics, and IR studies. While the 1:1 a-AA/ABOC helices diverged from the canonical a-helix, the helix formed by the 9-mer 2:1 a/b-peptide allowed the projection of the a-aminoacid side chains in a spatial arrangement according to the a-helix. Such a finding constitutes an important step toward the conception of functional tools that use the ABOC residue as a potent helix inducer for biological applications.
