Bioinspired Materials-Enabled Sustainable Artificial Photosynthesis

In a recent study published in Nature Catalysis, Lin and his co-authors designed and prepared two metal–organic framework-based artificial enzymes (metal-organic-zyme, MOZ) libraries for solar-to-chemical conversion. Through the optimal coupling of these two libraries, the MOZ exhibits superior activities of water oxidation and carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction during the artificial photosynthesis process.
