Single‐Wall Carbon Nanotube–Ferrocene Nanohybrids: Observing Intramolecular Electron Transfer in Functionalized SWNTs

A long-lived charge-separated state, SWNT.−–Fc.+, is formed by photoinduced electron transfer in a novel single-wall carbon nanotube–ferrocene (SWNT–Fc) nanohybrid. The presence of SWNT.−, detected by laser flash photolysis, was confirmed by time-resolved pulse radiolysis and steady-state bulk electrolysis.
