Laboratoire de Chimie des Processus Biologiques, CNRS-UMR 8229

Our team at LCPB in Collège de France develops biomimetic chemistry and bioinspired approaches aiming at developing original catalysts for applications in the field of new technologies of energy. The class of porous hybrid materials stands as promising plaftforms of developing new systems development for heterogeneous photocatalysis. We also developing new electrode and photoelectrode materials as storage devices of renewable energies (solar) by (photo) through the decomposition of water into hydrogen and oxygen or through the reduction of CO₂ in molecules rich in energy such as CO, formate or methanol.
