Exciton dynamics in DNA oligomers studied by broadband deep-UV transient absorption spectroscopy

We report broadband transient absorption measurements of adenine strands in the deep-UV (250-370 nm). By varying the strand length we resolve the interplay between inter-base stacking and exciton formation and dynamics in DNA oligomers.
