Incoherent manipulation of the photoactive yellow protein photocycle with dispersed pump-dump-probe spectroscopy.
Photoactive yellow protein is the protein responsible for initiating the "blue-light vision" of Halorhodospira halophila. The dynamical processes responsible for triggering the photoactive yellow protein photocycle have been disentangled with the use of a novel application of dispersed ultrafast pump-dump-probe spectroscopy, where the photocycle can be started and interrupted with appropriately...
متن کاملOptimal pump–dump control and time-frequency resolved spectroscopy of ground-state wave-packet focusing
The theory of optimal control together with that of transient probe absorption spectroscopy are applied for control and detection of molecular wave packet dynamics in the weak response regime. We obtain a globally optimal pump–dump control field which drives the initial state to the predefined target, focused at the inner-turning point region of the electronic ground state potential. As for the...
متن کاملReaction pathways of photoexcited retinal in proteorhodopsin studied by pump-dump-probe spectroscopy.
Proteorhodopsin (pR) is a membrane-embedded proton pump from the microbial rhodopsin family. Light absorption by its retinal chromophore initiates a photocycle, driven by trans/cis isomerization on the femtosecond to picosecond time scales. Here, we report a study on the photoisomerization dynamics of the retinal chromophore of pR, using dispersed ultrafast pump-dump-probe spectroscopy. The app...
متن کاملVibrational polarization beats in femtosecond coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy: A signature of dissociative pump–dump–pump wave packet dynamics
Knopp et al. @J. Raman Spectrosc. 31, 51 ~2000!# have recently used resonant femtosecond coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy ~CARS! to prepare and probe highly excited vibrational wave packets on the ground electronic potential surface of molecular iodine. The experiment uses a sequence of three resonant femtosecond pulses with two independently variable time delays. The first two pulses ac...
متن کامل(Sub)-picosecond spectral evolution of fluorescence in photoactive proteins studied with a synchroscan streak camera system.
The spectral evolution of three photoactive proteins has been investigated by measuring the fluorescence with good temporal and wavelength resolution and a high signal-to-noise ratio. Upon excitation at 400 nm wild-type (wt) PYP both at neutral pH and in the low-pH blueshifted pBdark state exhibited a strong quenching of the fluorescence, the major part of which could be described by lifetimes ...
