Riding the redox waves: Heterogeneous charge transfer from and to semiconductor nanocrystals is a prerequisite for almost every potential nanoelectronic device. The electronic properties of colloidal, hydrophobically ligated nanocrystals were directly measured in ionic liquids (see picture). It was possible to observe quantum-size effects and estimate the charge-transfer kinetics.
