In the present report, we discuss optical and photophysical properties of heterosupramolecular nanosize arrays based on CdSe/ZnS core/shell NCs (with controlled CdSe radius and number of ZnS layers) and a variety of pyridyl containing porphyrin molecules (P) attached to a particle surface via non-covalent ligation interactions. The formation of the NC/porphyrin supramolecular heterostructures (well soluble in toluene and chloroform) takes place due to a ligand interactions of Zn atoms of outer ZnS shell with pyridyl containing porphyrin molecules, like upon the formation of self-assembled multiporphyrin arrays. The formation of the complexes is accompanied by strong luminescence quenching of the NC while fluorescence parameters for porphyrin ligands remain practically unchanged. The possible mechanisms of the non-radiative relaxation processes in CdSe/ZnS nanocrystals passivated with meso-pyridyl substituted porphyrins having (smaller ΔE=LUMO-HOMO energy gap with respect to that for NCs) will be analyzed (electron/hole tunneling, the realization of effective non-radiative decay pathways caused by the formation of interfacial electronic states in NC/P heterostructures, etc.).
