Titre : Molecular Catalysts Integrated in Nanostructured Metal Oxides for
Solar Water Splitting.

Cette conférence sera prononcée (en anglais) par le Professeur Erwin Reisner, du département de chimie de l'University of Cambridge (Royaume-Uni).

Résumé : Artificial photosynthesis is a chemical process that captures and stores the energy from sunlight in a chemical fuel (a so called solar fuel). This renewable process requires the finely tuned combination of light absorption, charge separation and chemical catalysis, which is superbly coupled in natural photosynthesis but much less so by artificial systems. This presentation will summarise our recent progress in developing cross-disciplinary approaches to interface molecular catalysts with semiconductor metal oxide materials to photosplit water as a sustainable route to the
energy vector hydrogen.
