Mimicking the antenna-electron transfer properties of photosynthesis.
A molecular assembly based on derivatized polystyrene is described, which mimics both the light-harvesting and energy-conversion steps of photosynthesis. The system is unique in that the two key parts of a photosynthetic system are incorporated in a functional assembly constructed from polypyridine complexes of Ru(II). This system is truly artificial, as none of the components used in construct...
متن کاملcontrol of the optical properties of nanoparticles by laser fields
در این پایان نامه، درهمتنیدگی بین یک سیستم نقطه کوانتومی دوگانه(مولکول نقطه کوانتومی) و میدان مورد مطالعه قرار گرفته است. از آنتروپی ون نیومن به عنوان ابزاری برای بررسی درهمتنیدگی بین اتم و میدان استفاده شده و تاثیر پارامترهای مختلف، نظیر تونل زنی(که توسط تغییر ولتاژ ایجاد می شود)، شدت میدان و نسبت دو گسیل خودبخودی بر رفتار درجه درهمتنیدگی سیستم بررسی شده اشت.با تغییر هر یک از این پارامترها، در...
15 صفحه اولMimicking bacterial photosynthesis
Photosynthesis in bacteria involves absorption of light by antenna chromophores and transfer of excitation to reaction centers, which convert the excitation energy to electrochemical potential energy in the form of transmembrane charge separation. A proton pump uses this stored energy to generate proton motive force across the membrane, which in turn is used to synthesize adenosine triphosphate...
متن کاملOn spin-exchange and electron-transfer rates in bacterial photosynthesis.
A discrepancy is explored regarding the spin exchange integral estimated from magnetic field effects on recombination of the bacteriochlorophyll dimer cation (Bchl)(2)+ and the bacteriopheophytin anion Bph(-) and the measured electron transfer rate between Bph and electronically excited (Bchl)(2). In one explanation considered here there are two sites for the electron or for the hole, with a ho...
متن کاملSyntrophic anaerobic photosynthesis via direct interspecies electron transfer
Microbial phototrophs, key primary producers on Earth, use H2O, H2, H2S and other reduced inorganic compounds as electron donors. Here we describe a form of metabolism linking anoxygenic photosynthesis to anaerobic respiration that we call 'syntrophic anaerobic photosynthesis'. We show that photoautotrophy in the green sulfur bacterium Prosthecochloris aestaurii can be driven by either electron...
