Our research explores biological light-harvesting proteins, artificial photosynthesis and lipid membranes. Biochemistry, spectroscopy, nanotech, AFM, FLIM.
Electricity can be generated by plant Light-Harvesting proteins, acting as a component in "bio-photovoltaic" device. Our study shows that the photocurrent generated can be enhanced by inclusion of synthetic pigments absorbing light at wavelengths where the protein is ineffective!
