Abstract
Energy storage and disposal by electron transfer in molecular and supe rmolecular systems may provide a conceptual and technical basis for th e construction of molecular electronic devices, e.g., molecular wires and switches. We consider structural, intramolecular, medium energetic and medium dynamic control of electron transfer in synthetic and neut ral supermolecules. Optimization principles are formulated for ultrafa st, highly efficient and stable charge separation.
