Photoexcited state dynamics in carotenoids
- Abstract:
-
Carotenoids are an important class of biomolecules found in nature with exquisite photo- physical properties. The quasi-one-dimensional nature of carotenoids enhances the roles of the electron-electron interactions and electron-nuclear coupling in their π-conjugated systems. This gives rise to a fascinating excited state structure with a nonemissive ‘dark’ excited state, labelled S1/2 1Ag- , of energy below the photoexcited ‘bright’ state, labell...
