We prepare novel nano-bio hybrids by employing Ag nanoprisms as surface plasmons to couple with light-harvesting complex II (LHCII) for broad-band optical enhancement in organic photovoltaics. The results open the possibility to use metal nanoparticles for tuning the photophysical properties of integral biomolecules in a well-defined way.
