متن کاملRevisiting the Excitation Energy Transfer in the Fenna-Matthews-Olson Complex
It is believed that the quantum coherence itself cannot explain the very high excitation energy transfer (EET) efficiency in the Fenna-Matthews-Olson (FMO) complex. In this paper, we show that this is not the case if the inter-site couplings take complex values. By phenomenologically introducing phases into the inter-site couplings, we obtain the EET efficiency as high as 0.8972 in contrast to ...
متن کاملNonlinear network model analysis of vibrational energy transfer and localisation in the Fenna-Matthews-Olson complex
Collective protein modes are expected to be important for facilitating energy transfer in the Fenna-Matthews-Olson (FMO) complex of photosynthetic green sulphur bacteria, however to date little work has focussed on the microscopic details of these vibrations. The nonlinear network model (NNM) provides a computationally inexpensive approach to studying vibrational modes at the microscopic level ...
متن کاملCoherence and Its Role in Excitation Energy Transfer in Fenna-Matthews-Olson Complex.
We show that the coherence between different bacteriochlorophyll-a (BChla) sites in the Fenna-Matthews-Olson complex is an essential ingredient for excitation energy transfer between various sites. The coherence delocalizes the excitation energy, which results in the redistribution of excitation among all the BChla sites in the steady state. We further show that the system remains partially coh...
متن کاملPlasmonic bio-sensing for the Fenna-Matthews-Olson complex
We study theoretically the bio-sensing capabilities of metal nanowire surface plasmons. As a specific example, we couple the nanowire to specific sites (bacteriochlorophyll) of the Fenna-Matthews-Olson (FMO) photosynthetic pigment protein complex. In this hybrid system, we find that when certain sites of the FMO complex are subject to either the suppression of inter-site transitions or are enti...
