Pump-Probe Spectroscopy, Photon Echoes, Two-Dimensional Spectroscopy and Vibrational Wavepackets
In the last chapter, we used a steady-state treatment to relate the shape of an absorption band to the dynamics of relaxations in the excited state.... -
Crystallographic and biochemical analyses of a far-red allophycocyanin to address the mechanism of the super-red-shift
Far-red absorbing allophycocyanins (APC), identified in cyanobacteria capable of FRL photoacclimation (FaRLiP) and low-light photoacclimation...

Circular Dichroism
In our analysis of how an electromagnetic radiation field interacts with electrons, we have, to this point, considered only the oscillating electric... -
Carotenoid responds to excess energy dissipation in the LH2 complex from Rhodoblastus acidophilus
The functions of both (bacterio) chlorophylls and carotenoids in light-harvesting complexes have been extensively studied during the past decade,...

Exciton Interactions
The Förster theory we considered in the last chapter applies to molecules that are far enough apart so that intermolecular interactions are very... -
Raman Scattering and Other Multi-photon Processes
The vibrational transitions discussed in Chap. 6 occur by absorption of a photon whose energy matches a... -
Tracking the first electron transfer step at the donor side of oxygen-evolving photosystem II by time-resolved infrared spectroscopy
In oxygen-evolving photosystem II (PSII), the multi-phasic electron transfer from a redox-active tyrosine residue (TyrZ) to a chlorophyll cation...
