A panchromatic hybrid crystal of iodoplumbate nanowires and J-aggregated naphthalene diimides with long-lived charge-separated states

A panchromatic hybrid crystal of anionic iodoplumbate nanowires and J-aggregated protonated naphthalene diimides has been formed through charge-assisted anion–π and lone pair–π interactions, which exhibits unusually long-lived charge-separated states even upon the irradiation of indoor lighting.
