Can We Harness Light Like Nature for a New Era of Green Chemistry? - Slashdot

Sunlight becomes energy when plants convert four photons of light. But unfortunately, most attempts at synthetic light-absorbing chemicals can only absorb one photon at a time.

When I read the headline this was a better way to convert solar energy to electricity resulting in better PV cells maybe. I don’t know why I thought that.

Photosynthesis is not about that.

This is about producing carbanions.
