3rd Seminar \u00abFrontiers in Nanoscale Molecular Photocatalysis\u00bb<\/h1>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″]<\/p>\n

The conversion of sunlight into fuels or chemicals is a key technology for a sustainable future. Hydrogen production via photocatalytic proton reduction with sunlight is a prominent example of this strategy. Substitution of noble by base metals in systems for photocatalytic proton reduction is a way to increase the sustainable character of water splitting and to realize a nearly infinite number of devices for this purpose, following natures approach in leaves. Such an ambitious aim requires the knowledge driven design of photoactive complexes, which in turn relies on the application of cutting-edge spectroscopic methods. With this seminar, the interconnection between established and cutting-edge hard X-ray methods and synchrotrons and X-ray free electron lasers and recent attempts to realize base metal complexes and assemblies for photocatalytic proton reduction will be presented. As such it connects molecular photocatalysis and transition metal inorganic chemistry with highly potential physical and spectroscopic methods at large scale facilities, giving an outlook for future sustainable chemistry challenges.<\/p>\n
