20. The classical ET theory qualitatively accounts for the trends of ultrafast ET reactions in the dye-sensitized semiconductor. According to nonadiabatic Marcus ET theory implemented on such dye-sensitized nanoparticles, the rate of electron injection is determined by the electron coupling between the dye and the semiconductor, the density of acceptor states in the semiconductor coupled to the dye, and the potential energy difference between the dye excited state and conduction band of the semiconductor (i.e., the driving force).
