The team of experts at the University of East Anglia (UEA, UK) is implementing a $ 1.26 million project to reconstruct the photosynthesis process in the hope of converting light
Artificial leaves will absorb solar energy to create a high-performing, low-cost energy source that has been successfully built by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (USA)
Artificial leaves resemble a tiny solar plant, focusing light on molecules to trigger chemical reactions that produce drugs.
People often call plants an energy plant because it has been able to convert endless energy sources from sunlight through photosynthesis over millions of years.
