Abstract: | Chlorophyll was immobilized with liquid crystal on a platinum surface to prepare a photoexcitable electrode. Liquid crystals such as N-(p-methoxybenzylidene)-p-butylanil-ine were found to be effective on the photoexcitation of the immobilized chlorophyll. Such a chlorophyll-liquid crystal electrode produced photocurrent when it was coupled with a solution of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and exposed to light. The electron transfer accompanied by the photoelectrochemical reaction is discussed. |
