Single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) can be well-dispersed in water by wrapping with short segments of natural DNA from salmon sperm. We report here the isolated DNA-wrapped SWNT hybrids. Measurements were carried out using UV-vis-NIR, near-infrared photoluminescence (PL) spectrum and atomic force microscopy (AFM). A possible charge transport between SWNTs and salmon-DNA is discussed in terms of observed spectral shifts in the photoluminescence spectra.
