Περίληψη:	In this article, the importance of charge/electron transfer in two rapidly growing areas of science is highlighted. In the field of molecular sensors, it plays a considerable role on the detection of molecular systems to serve as fluorescence sensors, switches, and molecular logic gates (MLG) replacing the semiconductor electronics, while in the field of photodynamic therapy, it acts competitive. On these scientific fields, a lot of research has been conducted in the last decades to find out potential candidates. In the field of fluorescent sensors, switches, and molecular logic gates, the fluorescent photo-induced electron transfer switching principle is responsible for the quenching of fluorescence. The manipulation of the quenching can lead to the design of an ideal candidate for complicated molecular logic operation. In the field of photodynamic therapy (PDT), the intersystem crossings occurring between excited singlet and triplet states are the key for an ideal photosensitizer (PS) candidate. The triplets must present relatively long lifetimes, and they must lie near or above the energy which is needed for the excitation of molecular oxygen. It this case, charge/electron phenomena can act competitive, and they are not desirable. However, there are a few complexes which are good PSs of singlet oxygen despite the charge transfer (CT) nature of their lowest excited state.
