Photosynthesis: Going Back to Basics
Filed in archive Base Effort by Reden Rodriguez on August 21, 2006

A study on how plants absorb almost 100% of the sunlight reaching them and how these are transformed into other forms of energy are being investigated by Michaeal Haumann and Holger Dau. Using the X-Ray source of the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) they have confirmed the fifth step in the catalysis process converting water into oxygen
. Only four of the five steps have been scientifically confirmed and this development will improve the understanding of the Photosynthetic process. The researchers further believe that with this new development, man can learn from the process and improve the present level of solar cell technology. I think they are right, do you agree?
