The electrical and optical properties of the nanotubes and nanowires were controlled through various synthetic conditions, such as doping level, dopant, and template-dissolving solvents. The diameters and wall thicknesses of the nanotubes were 100-200 nm and 10-30 nm, respectively. To determine the electrical and optical properties of the nano-systems, I-V characteristic curves with gate bias, dc conductivity, and UV-vis spectra were measured. We observed that the nanosystems were transformed from a conducting state to a semiconducting (or insulating)state through the process of de-doping using the template-dissolving solvents. Possible applications of these nanotubes and nanowires in the construction of nanotip emitters in field emission displays and polymer-based transistors are presented UR - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1x2dlS1Z-WFn8fz_QCOOP9WAHcl0VBOIR/view?usp=drivesdk ER -
