As KarlinOhio said, you have it backwards. Science 101: photosynthesis absorbes CO2 and releases O2........

As KarlinOhio said, you have it backwards. Science 101: photosynthesis absorbes CO2 and releases O2........ Photosynthesis:
(1) Splits H2O into hydrogen and oxygen, then
(2) Joins that hydrogen to CO2 to produce sugar
Dr. Nocera's device does the first part, using sunlight to directly split H2O. This is a more useful process than directly producing electricity, since the hydrogen and oxygen can be stored until needed and used to drive a fuel cell.
