In this study, a photo-bioelectrochemical fuel cell was constructed for photocurrent generation by illuminating the electrodes within an aqueous solution. In this purpose, gold electrode was coated with poly 4-(4H-Dithieno [3,2-b:2′,3′-d]pyrol-4-yl) aniline, P(DTP-Ph-NH2) conductive polymer fi lm by using electrochemical polymerization. Then, P(DTP-Ph-NH2) conductive polymer fi lm coated surface was electrochemically modi fi ed with cytochrome C which covalently linked onto the surface via bis-aniline functionality of the polymer fi lm and formed crosslinked-structure. The thylakoid membrane was a ...Daha fazlası
