Abstract
The fundamental principles and technologies for the design of stable film systems based on biomembranes, photosensitive membrane proteins and complexes (retinal-containing proteins, reaction centres of photosynthetic bacteria, light-harvesting complexes of photosystems I and II), including their associates with metal and metal oxide nanoparticles or quantum dots are described. The advantages of controlled incorporation of the semiconductor or plasmonic nanocrystals into the biohybrid film structures are analyzed, first of all, the increase in the wavelength range of solar light harvesting and effective transfer of collected energy to the biological chromophores. Particular attention is devoted to the production of ultrathin and highly organized films at interfaces as the key stage of the design of nanobiohybrid materials with particular properties for photovoltaics, optoelectronics and nanophotonics.The bibliography includes 182 references.
