Spaced out : Single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with covalently linked tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) derivatives have been synthetized and fully characterized as potential donor–acceptor nanoconjugates. Near‐infrared flourescence and transient absorption measurements showed that the charge recombination dynamics is a function of the spacer linking the two moieties and the donor ability of the different TTF derivatives.
