12. Weisman, R. B.; Bachilo, S. M. Nano Lett. 2003, 3, 1235-1238. Published peak locations for NaDDBS-dispersed CoMoCAT SWNTs agree,9 but do not include all the chiralities in our study.
13. Neither the energetic position nor the intensity of the new PL features is consistent with phonon replicas, such as those used to discuss recently observed satellite peaks in McDonald, T. J.; Jones, M.; Engtrakul, C.; Ellingson, R. J.; Rumbles, G.; Heben, M. J. Rev. Sci. Instrum. 2006, 77, 053104.
14. Although anionic surfactants (including NaDDBS) have been observed to suspend SWNTs somewhat selectively based on diameter (see Okazaki, T.; Saito, T.; Matsuura, K.; Ohshima, S.; Yumura, M.; Iijima, S. Nano Lett. 2005, 5, 2618-2623), this fact alone cannot explain our data because the (7,5) tube has a diameter in between that of the (8,4) and (9,2) species, yet its features are not accentuated.
