Nonergodic dye-to-nanocrystalline semiconductor film electron transfer

Author

Summary, in English

The dominating part of electron injection from the transition metal complex Ru(dcbpy)<sub>2</sub>(NCS)<sub>2</sub> into a titanium dioxide nanocrystalline film proceeds extremely rapidly from the initially populated, vibronically nonthermalized, singlet excited state of the molecule. The results are especially relevant to the understanding and design of molecular-based photovoltaic devices and artificial photosynthetic assemblies
