Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed extremely short 5 fs optical pulses and ultrafast coherent spectroscopic techniques to clarify ultrafast energy transfer dynamics of purple bacterial photosynthetic antennas. Quantum beats signals originated from electronic coherence between the B800 and B850 molecular assemblies in photosynthetic antenna LH2 were clearly observed by means of 5 fs coherent spectroscopic measurements. A Fourier analysis of the quantum beats signals shows that multi-modes electronic coherences are formed between B800 and B850. The results suggest that the multi-mode coherences play roles in highly efficient energy transfer of purple bacterial photosynthesis.
