Abstract
We present the novel design of photosystem I (PSI)-based biosolar cell, whereby conductive transparent electrode materials, such as ITO or FTO, are replaced with glass covered with silver island film. This nanostructured metallic layer combines high electric conductance with enhancing the absorption efficiency of the PSI biocatalyst via the plasmonic effect. We demonstrate strong enhancement of the photocurrent generated in the biohybrid electrode composed of oriented layers of PSI reaction centers due to plasmonic interactions of the PSI fluorophores and redox centres with the conductive silver island film.
期刊介绍：
An International Journal Devoted to Electrochemical Aspects of Biology and Biological Aspects of Electrochemistry
Bioelectrochemistry is an international journal devoted to electrochemical principles in biology and biological aspects of electrochemistry. It publishes experimental and theoretical papers dealing with the electrochemical aspects of:
• Electrified interfaces (electric double layers, adsorption, electron transfer, protein electrochemistry, basic principles of biosensors, biosensor interfaces and bio-nanosensor design and construction.
• Electric and magnetic field effects (field-dependent processes, field interactions with molecules, intramolecular field effects, sensory systems for electric and magnetic fields, molecular and cellular mechanisms)
• Bioenergetics and signal transduction (energy conversion, photosynthetic and visual membranes)
• Biomembranes and model membranes (thermodynamics and mechanics, membrane transport, electroporation, fusion and insertion)
• Electrochemical applications in medicine and biotechnology (drug delivery and gene transfer to cells and tissues, iontophoresis, skin electroporation, injury and repair).
• Organization and use of arrays in-vitro and in-vivo, including as part of feedback control.
• Electrochemical interrogation of biofilms as generated by microorganisms and tissue reaction associated with medical implants.
