Construction of Multi-Chromophoric Spectra from Monomer Data: Applications to Resonant Energy Transfer
arXiv:1608.06943 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.118.013001
Abstract
We develop a model that establishes a quantitative link between the physical properties of molecular aggregates and their constituent building blocks. The relation is built on the coherent potential approximation, calibrated against exact results, and proven reliable for a wide range of parameters. It provides a practical method to compute spectra and transfer rates in multi-chromophoric systems from experimentally accessible monomer data. Applications to Förster energy transfer reveal optimal transfer rates as functions of both the system-bath coupling and intra-aggregate coherence.
