Fullerenes and porphyrins are molecular architectures ideally suited for devising integrated,
multicomponent model systems to transmit and process solar energy. Implementation of C60 …

We have proposed a novel strategy for artificial photosynthesis where porphyrins and
fullerenes are assembled as building blocks into nanostructured artificial photosynthetic …

First Self-Contained Source Entirely Dedicated to Nanocarbons Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)
attract a good deal of attention for their electronic, mechanical, optical, and chemical …

Photoinduced charge separation (CS) and charge recombination (CR) processes have
been examined in various porphyrin− fullerene linked systems (ie., dyads and triads) by …

An extremely long-lived charge-separated state has been achieved successfully using a
ferrocene− zincporphyrin− freebaseporphyrin− fullerene tetrad which reveals a cascade of …

A novel molecular triad, representing an artificial reaction center, was synthesized via linking
a fullerene moiety to an array of two porphyrins (ie, a zinc tetraphenyl porphyrin (ZnP) and a …

Both charge-transfer absorption and emission have been observed in porphyrin-linked
fullerene where the C60 moiety is closely located on the porphyrin plane. Electron-transfer …

Despite the increasing interest of the scientific community in carbon nanotubes and
graphene, fullerene C60 still plays an important role in the family of nanocarbons. A quarter …

A meso, meso‐linked porphyrin trimer,(ZnP) 3, as a light‐harvesting chromophore, has been
incorporated for the first time into a photosynthetic multistep electron‐transfer model …

The photochemical and electrochemical properties of four chlorin− C60 or porphyrin− C60
dyads having the same short spacer between the macrocycle and the fullerene are …
