Abstract

The color of the incident light determines the efficiency of the hydrogen evolution mediated by a supramolecular photocatalyst. This finding demonstrates the importance of the Franck–Condon point in artificial photosynthesis systems and should have an impact on their design. Detailed facts of importance to specialist readers are published as ”Supporting Information”. Such documents are peer-reviewed, but not copy-edited or typeset.
