Abstract
Inspired by the photosynthetic system in nature, scientists proposed to construct artificial photosynthesis (AP) system to convert solar energy to chemical energy. The strategies of constructing AP systems has developed from simple multi-component physical mixing to supramolecular assembly. At present, the strategy is developing towards biomimetic supramolecular assembly. This review is dedicated to elaborate our understandings on the AP system construction. Three representative examples of bionic AP systems developed currently by us and others are introduced. These three examples mimic natural systems from different aspects, structural simulation, microchemical environmental construction, and phototropic simulation, which are based on strategies of hybrid supramolecular assembly or functional hydrogels’ assembling. We expect to provide new insights for the design of bionic AP systems.
