Abstract

Conversion of solar energy into storable chemical energy sustains life on earth and constitutes a scientific problem of fundamental interest which might also have long-term technical importance. The most attractive reaction is the photoinduced evolution of H2 and 02 from water according to the mechanism (n = number of photons)
