Absorption Spectra of SWNT and rr-p3ddt. Comparison of the absorption peaks for SWNT/rr-P3DDT dispersion (black line) and the solid film of rr- P3DDT (blue line). The starting amounts of SWNT and the polymer for the dispersion is 5 mg of each in 25 ml of toluene. The absorption spectrum of the polymer solution was obtained from a solution with a concentration of 0.2 mg/ml. The vibronic peaks of rr-p3ddt at 553nm and 602 nm can be seen in the solid rr-p3ddt film and in the SWNT/rr-P3DDT solution. The absorption peaks from 900 nm to 1500 nm represent the first optical transition (S 11 ) of dispersed SWNTs. 2

(a) regioregular poly (3-hexylthiophene) (rr-p3ht), (b) regioregular poly (3-octylthiophene) (rr- P3OT), (c) regioregular poly (3-decylthiophene) (rr-p3dt), and (d) regioregular poly (3- dodecylthiophene) (rr-p3ddt), recorded at 10 o C/min. The scans are started from heating at - 50 o C. A clear side chain melting occurs for rr-p3ddt at around 50 o C. 3

G-Mode for before (black upside down triangle) and after sorting (black sphere) with the three excitation lines of 532 nm (A), 633 nm (B) and 785 nm (C). The G-modes of 633 nm and 785 nm became narrower after sorting. The G-mode of 532 nm was very weak because most metallic SWNTs, resonant with 532 nm, were removed. From 532 nm and 633 nm, the peaks from ring stretching modes of the polymer are strongly seen at 1365 cm-1 and 1458 cm -1 4

The substrates were heated at 450 C for one hour under argon to remove the polymer. (A) shows raman spectrum at 633 nm excitation for P3DDT dispersed CNTs before and after polymer removal. The peaks from the polymers disappeared after burning off, indicating removal of the polymers. (B)-(D) are Raman spectra taken for different laser excitation wavelengths. The SWNTs dispersed by SDS do not have any enrichment in semiconducting or metallic tubes. The metallic peaks disappeared in P3DDT dispersed tubes as can be seen for 532 nm and 633 nm excitation. 5

This measurement is performed with AFM and SEM images, respectively. The samples are prepared by spin-coating at 3000 rpm for 3 min, and annealed for 90 sec. at 90 o C. The average diameter and length of the sorted SWNTs were 1.58 ± 0.26 nm and ± μm, respectively. 6

7 M M S S S S Supplementary Figure S7. Absorption Spectra of various CNT films. UV-Vis-NIR for SWNT films after heating at 450 C for one hour in argon to remove the polymers. Even though the peaks are not well resolved, it can be seen that metallic CNTs present in the SDS dispersed SWNTs (no sorting) and in the sediment. However, the M11 region for P3DDT dispersed SWNTs do not show clear peaks indicating little to no metallic tubes are present. Note: The two peaks in the overlap region marked for both M11 and S22 are corresponding to energy of 1.87eV (662nm) and 1.66eV (745nm). From the Kataura plot ( the peak at 1.87eV (662nm) peak will correspond to: (7,6) at S22 region at diameter of 0.89nm, (10, 3) at S22 region at diameter of 0.94nm or (11,8) at M11 region at diameter of 1.31nm 1.66eV (745nm) peak will correspond to: (8,6) at S22 region at diameter of 0.97nm, (13,0) at S22 region at diameter of 1.03nm, (12,2) at S22 region at diameter of 1,04 nm or (12,9) at M11 region at diameter of 1.45nm, (19,1) at M11 region at diameter of 1.55nm From our Raman RBM peaks, the diameter of our CNTs are all below 1.2nm, so we can conclude that the two peaks in the overlap region are in the S22 region for semiconducting tubes rather than M11 region for the large diameter metallic tubes. 7

Normalized PL intensities for SWNT/SDS in aqueous solvent on the graphene sheet map. Each PL peak intensity was symbolized by the line thickness and darkness of color of hexagons. For example, the darker color and the thick perimeter of a hexagon represent higher PL intensity. The hexagons correspond to the coordinates of chiral vectors. Each peak was normalized by the maximum peak intensity. 9

Our CNTs have about 1μm of the average length. This histogram was obtained from 1.5 um channel length. This histogram shows 90% or more working devices with an on/off current of 10 3 or higher from 122 device measurements. Moreover, all device showed transistor characteristics. This result supports the observation of nearly 100% semiconducting SWNTs in our sorted tubes, analyzed by optical spectroscopic methods. 10

11 Supplementary Figure S11. AFM and Histogram of On/Off Ratios of individual SWNT Devices (A) AFM phase image of a short channel SWNT device, and (B) its corresponding topography image. The devices were fabricated using a method previously reported (W.M. Wang, M.C. LeMieux, S. Selvarasah, M.R. Dokmeci, Z. Bao, Dip-Pen Nanolithography of Electrical Contacts to Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes, ACS Nano, 3, , 2009.). The channel length for this particular device was 348 nm, corresponding to the length of the SWNT connecting the electrodes. (C) Using such short channel devices, on/off ratios of 80 SWNTs have been characterized. As our data indicates, all of the 80 randomly selected SWNTs exhibited semi-conducting behavior. 11

17 Supplementary Table S7. Semiconducting SWNTs predicted to be selected by the model. We see that all the SC tubes that are observed experimentally have a mismatch smaller than All the SC tubes that are eliminated by the process have a mismatch larger than 0.22 except for (11,1) which cannot be distinguished from (9,4). Eleven SC tubes observed in either Raman or PL experiments are predicted by the model. Four SC tubes that are eliminated in the experiment are rejected by the model. One SC tube (11,1) that is eliminated in the experiment has a small mismatch (0.17) and is accepted by the model. In both the SC and metallic cases, double helical wrapping gave the best match between predicted ones and those observed experimentally.
