Covalent functionalization of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) with the photosynthetic reaction center (RC) from Rhodobacter sphaeroides R26 via click chemistry reaction has been performed. The hybrid system was characterized by flash photolysis and infrared spectroscopy and the RC was found to retain its photoactivity and structural integrity.

Abstract
Covalent functionalization of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) with the photosynthetic reaction center (RC) from Rhodobacter sphaeroides R26 via click chemistry reaction has been performed. The hybrid system was characterized by flash photolysis and infrared spectroscopy and the RC was found to retain its photoactivity and structural integrity. The strategy is applicable for the fabrication of hybrid bio-electronic devices capable of absorbing and converting solar energy.File in questo prodotto:
