Excitation energy transfer and equilibration process in LHCII studied by multidimensional electronic spectroscopy
Abstract
Light-harvesting complex II (LHCII) – the light-harvesting antenna of Photosystem II – is a naturally abundant system that plays an important role in photosynthesis. In this study, we present a phenomenological analysis of the excitonic energy transfer in LHCII using ultrafast two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy, that we find compares well with previous theoretical and experimental results.
