Biochemical reactions remote-sensitized by excitons propagating across macroscopic distances along biological fibers: Isomerization of 11-cis-retinal

Presently we report a second example of a biochemical reaction sensitized remotely by excitons (electronic excited states) efficiently transferred along intermediate filaments (IFs) over macroscopic distances. IFs are excellent conductors of energy in the form of excitons, with the efficiency of ca....
