Artificial photosynthesis is the advancement of a process that utilizes sunlight to convert CO₂ and H₂O into high-energy fuels (methanol, hydrogen) analogous to photosynthetic pathways. Carbon-neutral energy is critical to tackling climate change, and this method provides a solution by offering an alternative to fossil fuels while also minimizing greenhouse gas emissions. Nanostructured catalysts such as plasmonic metals and hybrid nanocomposites greatly improve efficiency and scaling. Recent developments in the design of catalysts namely gold nanoparticles and titanium oxide hybrids have shown better turnover on conversion of CO₂ to fuels in-situ from solar energy (solar-to-fuel conversion). Key words: Nanostructured catalysts, Polymer composites, Photoelectrochemical cell, Artificial photosynthesis, Energy sustainability.

Keywords: Artificial photosynthesis, nanostructured catalysts, CO₂ reduction, green chemistry, peptide reconfigurable materials.
