Introduction

Research on nanostructured materials is an active and rapidly developing interdisciplinary field involving chemistry, physics, and biology and is related to the technological development of materials science, information science and microelectronics. During the past few years, studies in these fields such as the synthesis of nanocrystals materials or quantum dots(QDs) to construct organized assemblies on nanoscale dimensions, and the microscopic mechanisms of surface and interfacial electron transfers have made great progress. In the areas of technological interest, all will benefit significantly from multidisciplinary research. Indeed, nanostructured organized assemblies with optoelectronic functionality will play a key role in advanced materials in the next century.

From the viewpoint of physics and chemistry, the QDs building blocks with photoactive or electroactive units are considered first. In other words, nanostructured species are characterized by the nanoscale...
