Abstract

The supramolecular organization of dye molecules in one-dimensional zeolite channel systems leads to materials with intriguing properties that can be exploited for a variety of applications. Two concepts are presented outlining how zeolite-based hybrid host–guest compounds can be employed in solar energy conversion devices. The first concept describes light-harvesting and sensitization, while the second concept focuses on luminescent solar concentrators.
