Assessment of S* in the Orange Carotenoid Protein
James P. Pidgeon, George A. Sutherland, Matthew S. Proctor +9
The orange carotenoid protein (OCP) is the water-soluble mediator of non-photochemical quenching in cyanobacteria, a crucial photoprotective mechanism in response to excess illumin…
Twisted carotenoids do not support efficient intramolecular singlet fission in the orange carotenoid protein
George A. Sutherland, James P. Pidgeon, Harrison Ka Hin Lee +8
Singlet exciton fission is the spin-allowed generation of two triplet electronic excited states from a singlet state. Intramolecular singlet fission has been suggested to occur on…
Band-edge Excitation of Carotenoids Removes S* Revealing Triplet-pair Contributions to the S1 Absorption Spectrum
Daniel W Polak, Andrew J Musser, George A Sutherland +7
The nature of the low-lying electronic states in carotenoids has been debated for decades. We use excitation-dependent transient absorption spectroscopy and comparison with publish…
