“…Ruhlmann and co-workers reported a molecular photovoltaic electrode based on LbL films between tetracationic porphyrin (5,10,15,20- 334 In the presence of redox mediator couples, the film electrodes showed significant photocurrent response upon visible illumination. The presence of the polyoxometalates enhanced the current magnitude.…”

Materials fabrication with nanoscale structural precision based on bottom-up-type self-assembly has become more important in various current disciplines in chemistry including materials chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, analytical chemistry, biochemistry, colloid and surface chemistry, and supramolecular chemistry. Although the design of new materials based on nanoscale self-assembly is anticipated as a key concept, preparing complete three-dimensional structures at nanoscale precision remains a difficult target using current technologies. Rather, dimension-reduced approaches such as layering of two-dimensional nanostructures into precisely controlled lamellar nanomaterials are currently achievable. In particular, layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly is known as a highly versatile method for fabrication of controlled layered structures from various kinds of component materials using very simple, inexpensive, and rapid procedures. Therefore, fabrication of multilayer films through the LbL deposition process has attracted growing interest from various research communities. The high versatility and flexibility of LbL assembly is continuously creating new concepts, new materials, new procedures, and new applications. In this highlight review, we focus on nanoarchitectonics by LbL assembly. After an initial introduction on the invention and a brief history of the LbL assembly technique, innovations and the evolution of the technique are described based mainly on recent examples, which are categorized into two sections: (i) developments in methodology (technical, material, and phenomenological aspects with expansion of concept) and (ii) progress in applications (physical, chemical/biochemical, and biomedical applications).

At present, high efficiency and low fabrication cost are still the main goal that people pursuit for next‐generation solar cells such as dye‐sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) and organic solar cells (OPVs). Polyoxometalates (POMs), as an environmentally friendly material, are a type of stable, low cost and soluble oxide clusters with desirable features, including highly tunable structural properties, peculiar optoelectronic properties and excellent redox properties. Thus, during the recent years, POMs have been increasingly recognized as important building blocks for DSSCs and OPVs. In this review, the development of various molecular and hybrid materials derived from POMs is discussed with regard to the function in solar cells.
