Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The necessity for sustainable energy production has driven the rapid development of technologies to harness solar energy effectively. The microphotosynthetic power cells (μPSC) aim to harness solar energy from living photosynthetic cells. Currently, the power density of the μPSC is low, due to several factors. One of the major impediments and challenges of the μPSC is its lower charge transfer efficiency between the photosynthetic microorganisms and the electrodes. Herein, the proposed strategy explores the interaction of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) with photosynthetic microorganisms for enhanced power generation from the μPSC. Herein, the intracellular biocompatible, efficient light absorbers in the form of Au NPs are introduced. Translocation of gold colloidal solution of 25 μL of 50 μg mL −1 (253.8 μmol mL −1 ) concentration into 2 mL whole liquid culture of algal cells ( Chlamydomonas reinhardtii : ≈1 million cells mL −1 ) enhances operational quantum yield ( ϕ 0 ) of the algal cells by 30.2% and power generation capability by 15.2% in μPSCs. Internalized Au NPs in the algal cells quench chlorophyll fluorescence, thereby contributing to increased photosynthetic efficiency. With multiple advantages such as light absorption capability, biocompatibility, and ability to transfer the electrons, Au NPs can efficiently harvest sunlight for enhanced power generation from the μPSC.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
