Intercalation of metalloporphyrin-surfactant complex into layered niobate and the photochemical injection of electrons to niobate
An anionic metalloporphyrin (Zn(II)TCPP4-) was successfully co-intercalated into the layered oxide K4Nb6O17 with cationic surfactant (CTAB). Photochemical injection of electrons into the niobate layer was observed.
