ABSTRACT
The interest in electron transfer (ET) between the excited state manifolds in organic semiconductors is prompted by its many uses in photoreceptor and imaging applications. Dye-sensitized inorganic semiconductor surfaces have been demonstrated as potential structures for the next generation of solar panels [1,2], and the dye sensitization of silver halide surfaces provides the basis for color photography. From the technological point of view, it is essential that one be able to identify and prepare a suitable class of materials that exhibit the desired properties needed for the application. To do this, understanding the dominant mechanism and the key factors determining the charge transfer (CT) is required.
