Photosynthesis is the central process by which plants build up biomass using light, water, and carbon dioxide from the air. Gaining a detailed understanding of this process makes it possible to ...

A team of scientists at the University of Cambridge have found a way to take carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and turn it ...

Scientists study how tiny pigments in leaves use quantum mechanics to transfer energy efficiently for better solar panels.

Quantum mechanics plays a role in the process of photosynthesis. Engineers have long sought efficient ways to convert solar ...

In a major leap toward sustainable energy, a team of Japanese researchers has developed an artificial photosynthesis system ...

Photosynthesis -- mainly carried out by plants -- is based on a remarkably efficient energy conversion process. To generate chemical energy, sunlight must first be captured and transported further.

Chinese astronauts claim have successfully developed artificial photosynthesis technology in orbit for the first time. This revolutionary experiment matches the natural process of photosynthesis by ...

A study from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) highlights the role of quantum mechanics in photosynthesis, a process ...

A postdoctoral researcher in the department of physics and biology at Princeton University gave a guest lecture about a ...
