This paper derives from my closing remarks lecture at the 198 Faraday Discussion meeting on Artificial Photosynthesis, Kyoto, Japan, February 28-March 2. The meeting had sessions on biological approaches and fundamental processes, molecular catalysts, inorganic assembly catalysts, and integration of systems for demonstrating realistic devices. The field has had much progress since the previous Faraday Discussion on Artificial Photosynthesis in Edinburgh, UK, in 2011. This paper is a personal account of recent discussions and developments in the field, as reflected in and discussed during the meeting. First it discusses the general directions of artificial photosynthesis and some considerations for a future solar fuels technology. Then it comments on some scientific directions in the area of the meeting.
本文源自我在日本京都举行的第 198 届 Faraday 讨论会上的闭幕演讲,该会议的主题是人工光合作用,时间为 2017 年 2 月 28 日至 3 月 2 日。会议的分会场主题分别为生物方法和基础过程、分子催化剂、无机组装催化剂以及系统集成以展示实际设备。自 2011 年在英国爱丁堡举行的上一届 Faraday 人工光合作用讨论会后,该领域取得了很大进展。本文是对该领域近期讨论和发展的个人总结,反映并讨论了会议期间的情况。本文首先讨论了人工光合作用的总体方向以及未来太阳能燃料技术的一些考虑因素,然后对会议所涉及的一些科学方向进行了评论。
