Abstract
The natural photosynthetic components hold approximately the highest efficiency of quantum yields. Researchers have extracted natural complexes from photosynthetic organisms to design biohybrid photoelectrochemical systems. To this end, natural parts such as reaction center and photosystem I have been usually joined with a conductive solid environment for more effective energy conversion based on the protein–electrode charge exchange. In this minireview, we highlight the use of the most common natural components for direct solar power conversion in electrochemical vehicles and solid-state designs as well as their applications in the development of new organic solar cells.
