In this work, samples of poly(N-vinyl carbazole) (PVK)-grafted multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were synthesized via free radical reaction. The ready-made PVK was allowed to react directly with MWCNTs at 70 °C in the presence of azo-bis-isobutyronitrile (AIBN). The purified deep grey products, which can dissolve in common organic solvents such as chloroform and 1,2-dichlorobenzene (DCB), were then characterized by FTIR spectra, TEM, TGA, elemental analysis, XPS, UV-vis spectra and Raman spectra. It was confirmed that PVK chains were grafted onto the surface of the carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The optical limiting properties of these PVK-grafted MWCNTs samples were investigated by open-aperture z-scan method. All of the samples of PVK-modified carbon nanotubes in chloroform showed optical limiting behavior better than that of C60 in toluene.
