Abstract:
The development of supramolecular chemistry has allowed the construction of structurally organized and functionally integrated chemical systems capable of elaborating the energy and information input of photons to perform complex functions. Model systems capable of mimicking the two fundamental steps of photosynthesis, namely light harvesting and photoinduced charge separation, have recently been developed.
