Various challenges in achieving artificial photosynthesis, such as water splitting, have been studied using both inorganic and organic molecules. However, several problems persist, including diffusion-limited reactions and multiple redox reactions in the liquid phase. In this Feature Article, the authors discuss the significant challenges in using polymer networks as active mediators for photoinduced water splitting.
