Solubilization and photoinduced electron transfer of single-walled carbon nanotubes wrapped with coenzyme Q(10).
A donor-acceptor nanohybrid composed of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and coenzyme Q(10) (CoQ(10)) undergoes efficient photoinduced electron transfer from SWNT to CoQ(10) to produce the charge-separated state as indicated by femtosecond laser flash photolysis and ESR measurements.
