Photoinduced Charge Transfer at Quantum Dot to Dye Inteface

<br/>Recent focus on assemblies of the QDs functionalized by various organic and metal-organic dyes is dictated by their promise to serve as a key element for both solar- to-electrical and solar-to-chemical energy conversion processes. Our simulations of QD/dye composites have led us to predictions of conditions that govern the direction and rates of the charge transfer from the QD to the dye and interpretation of transit-spectroscopy data.
