And Function

The survival of all photosynthetic organisms relies on the initial light harvesting step, and thus, after ~3 billion years of evolution energy capture and transfer has become a highly efficient and effective process. Here we examine the latest developments on understanding light harvesting, particularly in systems that exhibit an ultrafast energy transfer mechanism known as quantum coherence. With increasing knowledge of the structural and function parameters that produce quantum coherence in photosynthetic organisms, we can begin to replicate this process through biomimetic systems providing a faster and more efficient approach to harvesting and storing solar power for the worlds energy needs. Importantly, synthetic systems that display signs of quantum coherence have also been created and the first design principles for synthetic systems utilising quantum coherence are beginning to emerge. Recent claims that quantum coherence also plays a key role in ultrafast charge-separation highlights the importance for chemists, biologists, and material scientists to work more closely together to uncover the role of quantum coherence in photosynthesis and solar energy research.
