Primary charge-recombination in an artificial photosynthetic reaction center.
Photoinduced primary charge-separation and charge-recombination are characterized by a combination of time-resolved optical and EPR measurements of a fullerene-porphyrin-linked triad that undergoes fast, stepwise charge-separation processes. The electronic coupling for the energy-wasting charge recombination is evaluated from the singlet-triplet electronic energy gap in the short-lived, primary...
متن کاملModeling charge transfer in the photosynthetic reaction center.
In this work, we present a model to elucidate the unidirectionality of the primary charge-separation process in the bacterial reaction centers. We have used a model of three sites/molecules with electron transfer beginning at site 1 with an option to proceed to site 2 or site 3. We used a stochastic model with arbitrary correlation functions. We get the quantum yields of electron escape via the...
متن کاملArtificial Photosynthetic Reaction Center Exhibiting Acid-Responsive Regulation of Photoinduced Charge Separation.
Nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) is a photoprotective regulatory mechanism employed by many photosynthetic organisms to dynamically modulate energy flow within the photosynthetic apparatus in response to fluctuating light conditions. Activated by decreases in lumen pH produced during periods of high photon flux, NPQ induces rapid thermal dissipation of excess excitation energy. As a result, the...
متن کاملRecombination dynamics in bacterial photosynthetic reaction centers.
The time dependence of magnetic field effects on light absorption by triplet-state and radical ions in quinone-depleted reaction centers of Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides strain R-26 has been investigated. Measurements on the time scale of the hyperfine interaction in the radical pair [(BChl)2+. ...BPh-.)] provided kinetic data characterizing the recombination process. The results have been inter...
متن کاملPhenothiazine-BODIPY-fullerene triads as photosynthetic reaction center models: substitution and solvent polarity effects on photoinduced charge separation and recombination.
Novel photosynthetic reaction center model compounds of the type donor2 -donor1 -acceptor, composed of phenothiazine, BF2 -chelated dipyrromethene (BODIPY), and fullerene, respectively, have been newly synthesized using multistep synthetic methods. X-ray structures of three of the phenothiazine-BODIPY intermediate compounds have been solved to visualize the substitution effect caused by the phe...
