Understanding Ultrafast Energy Transfer across the Photosynthetic Membrane of Purple Bacteria with Near-Native Systems
Purple bacteria are able to capture sunlight and convert it to chemical energy through charge separation with almost 100% quantum efficiency. This remarkable efficiency is due to the arrangement of their pigments into pigment-protein complexes that are further arranged into a larger antenna network...
