Nanocarbon Hybrids: The Paradigm of Nanoscale Self-Ordering/Self-Assembling by Means of Charge Transfer/Doping Interactions.
The scope of this Perspective is to highlight the potential of nanoscale self-ordering/self-assembling nanocarbons-fullerenes, single-wall carbon nanotubes, and graphene-en route toward novel charge transfer hybrids that unify several functions such as light harvesting, charge separation, and, eventually, catalysis. All of the given examples are fully characterized by a broad range of spectroscopic as well as microscopic techniques and, as such, document the success in tuning the electronic structure of functional nanocarbons by means of charge transfer/doping interactions.
