Abstract

A hybrid photoanode integrating the cyanobacterial photosystem II (PSII) with a hematite film for water oxidation is constructed. Direct electron transfer from PSII to the excited Ti/Fe2O3 electrode occurs under light irradiation, resulting in a significant improvement of the photocurrent.
