38. Py-SWNT are probably due to a combination of carbon nanotube luminescence (Refs. 11, 15) and minor static pyrene excimer emission.

41. During the preparation of this manuscript, Georgakilas et al. reported the functionalization of carbon nanotubes via 1,3-dipolar addition, including the use of a functional group that contains a pyrene moiety- (Ref. 31). The fluorescence decay of the pyrene moiety was found to be non-exponential and considerably faster than that of free pyrene.
