LHCII-assisted TiO2 photocatalysis of CO2 to small organic compounds

CO2 photoreduction could be used to convert CO2 from the emissions of fossil-fuel power plants back into fuel using solar energy and photocatalysts such as TiO2. However, TiO2 absorbs UV light which is only a small portion of the solar radiation. Plants use the Light Harvesting Complex of photosyste...
