These ingredients were added to a water-filled dialysis bag — the kind used to filter the blood of someone whose kidneys don’t work — which has a membrane that only small molecules can pass through. The soupy solution also contained sodium cholate, a surfactant to keep all the ingredients from sticking together.
When the team filtered the surfactant out of the mix, the ingredients self-assembled into a unit, capturing light and generating an electric current.
