Probing the heterogeneous structure of eumelanin using ultrafast vibrational fingerprinting
Eumelanin protects cells from sun damage and is promising for energy conversion applications, but its structure and excited state dynamics are elusive. Here the authors shed light on both aspects combining selective excitation of UV- and visible-absorbing chromophores with time-resolved infrared spe...
