Abstract:
We have demonstrated controlled assembly between CdSe quantum dots (QDs) and a fullerene (C60) derivative via complementary three-point hydrogen bonding interactions. The recognition-mediated assembly facilitated an interpenetrated network morphology and hence efficient charge transfer from QD to C60.
