Stark effect ( electroabsorption ) spectroscopy of photosynthetic reaction centers at 1 . 5 K : evidence that the special pair has a large excited - state polarizability
The Stark effect or electroabsorption spectrum of the Qr transition of the special pair, P, of Rb. sphaeroides reaction centers has been measured at 1.5 K in frozen glycerol/buffer glasses. Under these conditions, inhomogeneous broadening of the absorption band is minimized, and some structure is resolved in the absorption and Stark effect spectra. As a result it is possible to greatly refine e...

متن کاملSilicon Nanocrystals
Silicon has many advantages over other semiconductor materials: low cost, nontoxicity, practically unlimited availability, and decades of experience in purification, growth and device fabrication. It is used for almost all modern electronic devices. However, the indirect energy gap in bulk crystalline Si makes it unable to emit light efficiently and thus unsuitable for optoelectronic applicatio...
متن کاملHigher-Order Stark Spectroscopy: Polarizability of Photosynthetic Pigments
Stark spectra for nonoriented molecules with typical broad inhomogeneous line widths are obtained by applying an ac electric field and detecting the change in absorbance at the second harmonic of the field modulation frequency. The analysis of such data in terms of molecular parameters such as changes in dipole moment and polarizability is often difficult. We outline a new method, called higher...
متن کاملCharge, Polarizability, and Photoionization of Single Semiconductor Nanocrystals
The electrostatic properties of individual CdSe nanocrystals are directly measured using electrostatic force microscopy (EFM) in dry air at room temperature. We determine that the static dielectric constant of CdSe nanocrystals with diameters 5 nm is uniform. However, the charge per nanocrystal is nonuniform, with some nanocrystals possessing a positive charge. Furthermore, a small fraction of ...
