Researchers try to decode the quantum mechanics of chlorophyll, Nature’s near-perfect light harvester, to harness solar ...

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

The green compound known as chlorophyll, found in plants, enables them to capture solar energy and convert it into food via the process of photosynthesis. It’s also suggested to be a beneficial ...

All trees need sunlight to grow, but lucky for home dwellers, some trees do well in low-lighting conditions, making them ...

The efficient conversion of solar energy into storable forms of chemical energy is the dream of many engineers. Nature found ...

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.

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