Natural organisms such as photosynthetic bacteria, algae, and plants employ complex
molecular machinery to convert solar energy into biochemical fuel. An important common …

Variability characterizes the complexity of biological systems and is essential for their
function. Microtubules (MTs) play a role in structural integrity, cell motility, material transport …

In this study, we overview resonance energy transfer between molecules in the presence of
plasmonic structures and derive an explicit Förster-type expression for the rate of plasmon …

White light emitting (WLE) materials are of increasing interest owing to their promising
applications in artificial lighting, display devices, molecular sensors, and switches. In this …

In the framework of the theory of open quantum systems, we derive quantum master
equations for the ultrastrong system-bath coupling regime and, more generally, the strong …

Fermi's golden rule (FGR) serves as the basis for many expressions of spectroscopic
observables and quantum transition rates. The utility of FGR has been demonstrated …

For a long time microscopic physical descriptions of biological processes have been based
on quantum mechanical concepts and tools, and routinely employed by chemical physicists …

The exciton transfer in the light-harvesting complex with the following electron–hole
separation in the photosynthetic reaction center dimer is investigated theoretically. The …

In this study, we develop a theory of multichromophoric excitation energy transfer (MC-EET)
in the framework of macroscopic quantum electrodynamics. The theory we present is …

Quantum master equations provide a general framework for describing the dynamics of
electronic observables within a complex molecular system. One particular family of such …
