Wir zeigen, dass hybridisierte dsDNA eine senkrechte Ausrichtung zu SWCNTs einnimmt, und präsentieren eine abstandsabhängige Übertragung der Energie von Fluoreszenzfarbstoffen auf SWCNTs. Der Energietransfer von Kohlenstoffnanoröhren (CNET) folgt einer d−5‐Abhängigkeit mit einem charakteristischen Abstand von 7,4 nm (± 0,7 nm) für 50 % Energietransfer.
