Beatty's research is to improve our understanding of basic aspects of how a photosynthetic protein functions to convert light to electrical energy, and in collaboration with Madden to use this improved understanding to build a device to harvest sunlight in practical applications. We have already created a prototype device in the laboratory, and this device operates at high efficiency to capture and store light energy, which is converted to an electrical current. There are several ways in which this initial device could be improved, and this research is to experiment on basic aspects of photosynthetic protein electrical conductance as well as applied aspects of device fabrication.
