Photochemical transformations are greatly improved in yield by fluidic reactor technology. However, the delivery of synthetically-active light to the reactants is a challenge. Here, we use upconversion in a bio-inspired microreactor to augment the flux of critical wavelengths of light. This new technology increased of a model reaction by converting a greater portion of sunlight to photochemically-available photons.
光化学反应的产率通过微流控反应器技术得到了极大提高。然而,将具有合成活性的光输送到反应物是一项挑战。在这里,我们在受生物启发的微反应器中利用上转换来增加关键波长的光通量。这项新技术通过将更大比例的太阳光转化为光化学可用光子,提高了模型反应的[此处原文似乎有误,推测可能是“产率”]。
