Abstract

A photoelectric device is disclosed. The photoelectric device includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and an electrolyte disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode. The second electrode includes a transparent layer for allowing light to penetrate into the second electrode, an electron transport layer coupled to the transparent layer, and a genetically hybridized fluorescent silk layer as a photo-sensitizer coupled to the electron transport layer.
