Exciton Transfer in Photosynthesis and Engineered Systems: Role of Electronic Coherence and the Environment
Recent experiments show evidence for long-lived electronic coherence in several photosynthetic complexes, for example in the Fenna-Matthews-Olson complex of green sulfur bacteria. The experiments raise questions about the microscopic reasons for this quantum coherence and its role to the functioning...
