“Converting sunlight into renewable and storable fuels is a key challenge in modern society. In nature, plants use the sun’s energy to create sugars and oxygen from CO2 and water in a process called photosynthesis. However, this energy is not readily available for human use. The Reisner group aims to mimic this process using light absorbers, semiconductors, and catalysts that can break the bonds in water and CO2 to form chemical fuels such as hydrogen and carbon compounds. This process is called artificial photosynthesis, and represents a sustainable route to solar fuels. ”
