Exciton Accumulation in pi-Conjugated Wires Encapsulated by Light-Harvesting Macrocycles

摘要

The ability to absorb light energy and convert it into a molecular redistribution in charge density is fundamental to nature and life itself.To do this efficiently,a spatial and energetic separation of the light-absorbing unit from the part of a complex which actually performs the useful function- the reaction center-is required.
