Carbon nanotubes in electron donor-acceptor nanocomposites
Article Abstract:
The advances in the design, synthesis, characterization, and potential applications of new hybrid materials are studied based on carbon nanotube and electron donors to prepare practical photoelectrochemical devices. The ultimate goal of using these systems to prepare practical photoelectrochemical devices is discussed and a cell with a monochromatic efficiency of 8.5% conversion of light into current is illustrated.

Ordering fullerene materials at nanometer dimensions
Article Abstract:
The preparation and characterization of spheres, vesicles, needles, rods, and tubules of nanometer dimensions the molecular building blocks are ionic fullerene derivatives are described. One of the three measures to control both shape and size of the supramolecular assemblies is to balance the hydrophobic and the hydrophilic moieties.

Molecules in carbon nanotubes
Article Abstract:
The study describes the structural and dynamic behavior of molecules encapsulated in carbon nanotubes. The impact of the confinement on the molecular packing, orientation, translation, rotation and reactivity is demonstrated for a range of fullerene and nonfullerene molecules.
