Abstract

In this study, we improved the hydrogen production efficiency by combining photosystem I with an artificial light harvesting dye, Lumogen Red. In the reaction system, Lumogen Red allows light absorption and energy transfer to photosystem I by Förster resonance energy transfer; therefore, the Pt nanoparticles act as active sites for hydrogen generation.
