Assistant Professor Chen Yu-Cheng holds up a tube full of algae and a chip with a microdroplet array. The team's research could boost the efficiency of artificial photosynthesis, which seeks to be a sustainable way of generating electricity that does not rely on fossil fuels or natural gas by mimicking how plants convert sunlight into energy.
