Supramolecular Light-Harvesting Antennas of Metal-Coordinated Bis(8-Hydroxyquinoline)-Substituted Porphyrin Networks

Metal-coordinated bis(8-hydroxyquinoline)-substituted porphyrin networks that mimic antenna chromophores in plants were organized on titanium dioxide electrodes in photoelectrochemical cells. The generated photocurrents can be optimized according to the number of generations of the metal-coordinated porphyrin networks due to the antenna effect.
