Ultrafast Nonadiabatic Dynamics of [FeII(bpy)3]2+ in Solution

TL;DR: A simple model of avoided crossings between singlet and triplet potential curves, induced by the strong spin-orbit interaction is proposed, which concludes that the ultrafast relaxation of aqueous iron(II)-tris(bipyridine) upon excitation into the singlet metal-to-ligand charge-transfer band can be described by the Fermi golden rule, despite its high value.
Journal ArticleDOI

Excitation Transfer in the Core Light-Harvesting Complex (LH-1) of Rhodobacter sphaeroides: An Ultrafast Fluorescence Depolarization and Annihilation Study

TL;DR: Oscillations in the isotropic fluorescence with a 105 cm-' frequency suggest wave-packet motion in the excited state chromophore in analogy with the reaction center special pair, which is supporting evidence for the hypothesis that the LH-1 antenna is built of bacteriochlorophyll dimers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Broadband femtosecond fluorescence spectroscopy of [Ru(bpy)3]2+

TL;DR: Femtosecond fluorescence-upconversion studies of aq.2+ show a short-lived vibrationally hot emission of the singlet metal-to-ligand charge-transfer state, with an ultrafast intersystem crossing to the triplet state at const.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vibrational Coherences and Relaxation in the High-Spin State of Aqueous [FeII(bpy)3]2+

TL;DR: The vibrational relaxation involves at least two modes: the FeN stretching mode and the coherently excited chelate-ring and bending mode, which relax on different time scales.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrafast tryptophan-to-heme electron transfer in myoglobins revealed by UV 2D spectroscopy.

TL;DR: Using ultra-broadband ultrafast two-dimensional spectroscopy in the ultraviolet (UV) and transient absorption in the visible range, the excited state decay pathways of the tryptophan amino acid residues in ferric myoglobins are disentangled.
