Achieving charge separation with minimal energy loss remains a key challenge in photocatalysis, but traditional approaches often suffer from rapid charge recombination or inefficient energy utilization. Now it has been shown that symmetry-breaking charge separation within organic crystalline nanoparticles can generate long-lived charge-separated states, enabling efficient photocatalytic hydrogen production.
