Abstract

Porphyrins are the most frequently employed building blocks as electron donors and sensitizers in artificial photosynthetic models for solar energy conversion. Recently, we have reported a series of covalently linked, donor-acceptor dyads, triads and copolymers containing porphyrin analogs aiming to improve light-harvesting capacity and charge-separation efficiency with a potential application in solar cells. In this review, we would like to summarize our recent studies on these photoactive, porphyrin-containing composite systems focusing on the designs and properties of these systems based on intermolecular electro- and energy transfer.
