Inorganic meets organic: Covalent bonds (peptide condensation) and noncovalent interactions (π-π stacking) have been employed en route toward versatile donor-acceptor inorganic- organic nanohybrids, QD-pyrene/SWNT. A charge-transfer event within the hybrid transforms the excitonic state of the quantum dot into a charge-transfer state that has a lifetime of several nanoseconds.
