Are adenine strands helical H-aggregates?
On the basis of our quantum mechanical calculation, we propose that homogeneous single-stranded adenine bases (Ade-DNA) form helical H aggregates, and the photoexcited states can be described as Frenkel excitons. The calculated excitonic coupling between adjacent transition dipoles is in good agreem...
