【 摘 要 】

Abstract

In solar energy harvesting, large parts of the solar spectrum do not contribute to the harvesting scheme. In article 1500218, L. Wondraczek and co-workers discuss the application of solar spectral conversion in the emerging context of photochemical energy harvesting through natural or artificial photosynthesis, arguing how such extrinsic sensitization can and cannot be employed to increase the efficiency of a photosynthetic machinery.
