Inspired by Photosystem II organization in chloroplast membranes, perylenebisimide quantasomes are depicted as green-to-reddish cylindrical units self-assembling into a multi-stacked nano-lamellar architecture on the surface of IO-ITO photoanodes. Photo-polymerization of the perylene precursors is instrumental to fixing this multichromophoric system that mimics the oxygen evolution activity of the natural enzyme.
