Electron and energy transfer processes in biochemical and artificial systems: tale of two roles of the vibrational motion
Molecular vibrations can play different roles in electron- and energy-transfer processes. Excitation of high frequency motion can help in creating quasi-resonant states enhancing the yield of electronic transition, whereas low frequency excitation can have a deep impact on room temperature dynamics, assisting detrapping of molecular excitons. These fundamental features are simulations of complex molecular systems, ranging from dimers to large aggregates.
