Abstract
We tried to achieve artificial photosynthesis systems by using gel to generate hydrogen when visible light and water are supplied. Three types of gels involving electronic transmission circuit with sensitizer, electron acceptor and catalyst were designed and the amount of generated H2 gas was measured. In the gel systems, hydrogen was generated more efficiently than in the solution systems, and all the functional groups constructed in the gel network worked effectively and cooperated each other to generate hydrogen.
