toxicodendron radicans

I haven't really had time to do any , sadly, because I'm hella busy right now.

Though admittedly, the stuff I'm busy with is artificial photosynthesis – looking for molecules which can use sunlight to capture CO2 and store energy while alleviating the effects of global warming.

...which... probably?... counts...?

Okay this looks super cool and I'm super interested in your work; I've got a silly question for you tho, what color is Ru(bipy)3?

@Achidyemay
In crystalline form, it's red. Dissolved in water, it turns yellow. When you illuminate it with UV (or lasers), it fluoresces and glows with a pink/orange colour.

Me, holding a little reference sample of some Ruthenium tris-bipyridine in a small glass cuvette. It fluoresces strongly under UV, just like chlorophyll does.
