Methods of treating an electronic device including an electrically conductive layer having single-walled semiconducting carbon nanotubes and single-walled metallic carbon nanotubes therein include the following step performed in the absence of an applied potential to the single-walled metallic carbon monotubes: chemically treating the electrically conductive layer with an aqueous solution having a first concentration of a diazonium reagent therein that is sufficient to convert at least some of the single-walled metallic carbon nanotubes to electrically insulating carbon nanotubes, but insufficient to convert more than 25% of the single-walled semiconducting carbon nanotubes to electrically insulating carbon nanotubes in the absence of an applied potential.
