Coherently wired light-harvesting in photosynthetic marine algae at ambient temperature
TLDR
Observations provide compelling evidence for quantum-coherent sharing of electronic excitation across the 5-nm-wide proteins under biologically relevant conditions, suggesting that distant molecules within the photosynthetic proteins are ‘wired’ together by quantum coherence for more efficient light-harvesting in cryptophyte marine algae.

Calculation of Couplings and Energy-Transfer Pathways between the Pigments of LH2 by the ab Initio Transition Density Cube Method
A practical method for accurate evaluation of the Coulombic contribution to the electronic coupling for energy transfer at any donor−acceptor separation is reported. The method involves the exact…

    Annual review of physical chemistry
  • 28 November 2003
TLDR
This review covers Förster theory for donor-acceptor pairs and electronic coupling for singlet-singlet, triplet-triplet, and superexchange-mediated energy transfer and includes the transition density picture of Coulombic coupling as well as electronic coupling between molecular aggregates (excitons).

Light Absorption and Energy Transfer in the Antenna Complexes of Photosynthetic Organisms.
TLDR
The description of energy transfer, in particular multichromophoric antenna structures, is shown to vary depending on the spatial and energetic landscape, which dictates the relative coupling strength between constituent pigment molecules.

Lessons from nature about solar light harvesting.
TLDR
The principles learned from studies of various natural antenna complexes are described and how to elucidate strategies for designing light-harvesting systems are suggested to be used for solar fuel production, to direct and regulate excitation energy flow using molecular organizations that facilitate feedback and control, or to transfer excitons over long distances.
