Coherent versus Incoherent Energy Transfer and Trapping in Photosynthetic Antenna Complexes
Open accessAbstract
In this paper we present a study of a model in which there is energy transfer as well as a special site where an irreversible reaction takes place. This model has an arbitrary ratio of homogeneous broadening versus site interaction energy. This allows us to study the crossover from hopping dynamics to exciton dynamics. We show that for the survival time the hopping (Förster) approximation gives a surprisingly accurate final result even when the energy transfer is excitonic. Fluorescence depolarization however is a sensitive probe for the nature of the energy transfer. We study the number of coherent molecules by considering a generalization of the inverse participation ratio. For LH1, assuming that it is a ring of 16 dimers, we estimate that the excitation is, on the average, delocalized over two dimers. The excitation is localized by phonons.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
