Optimal thermal bath for robust excitation energy transfer in disordered light-harvesting complex 2 of purple bacteria

The existence of an optimal thermal bath to facilitate robust energy transfer between the spectrally separated B800 and B850 rings in light-harvesting complex 2 (LH2) of purple bacteria is investigated via the multichromophoric Förster theory. Due to the inherent energy bias between the two rings, t...
