From nano‐ to macroscale : The immobilization of photo‐ and redox‐active 9,10‐di(1,3‐dithiol‐2‐ylidene)‐9,10‐dihydroanthracene‐based dipeptide 1 onto SWCNTs resulted in a high order of self‐alignment among 1 /SWCNTs (see picture). The assembly of the 1 /SWCNTs is the key for stabilizing long‐lived charge‐separated states that are formed upon photoexcitation of the SWCNTs.
