Charge transfer in donor-bridge-acceptor (DBA) structures typically takes place through the combination of donor-bridge and bridge-acceptor overlap integrals forming an effective, indirect electronic coupling between the donor (D) and acceptor (A) moieties. Here, we examine the effects of an additional direct DA electronic coupling on charge transfer processes in DBA systems with local interaction to thermal baths. First, using the exact Nakajima-Zwanzig master equation (NZME) for the reduced density matrix, we rigorously define probability currents as the coherent part of the NZME, thereby allowing us to quantify the contribution of the different electronic pathways (direct and indirect) to the charge transfer dynamics. Focusing on two minimal DBA systems of three sites (V and L models), and adopting well-developed methods, we find that the interplay between different transfer pathways can be assessed by the McConnell formula in the weak systembath coupling regime. We then demonstrate that the combination of indirect and direct donor-acceptor coupling either enhances or leads to a destructive quantum interference effect on charge transport processes, depending on the energy landscape of the DBA system.<br>

A primary mechanism of energy relaxation and chemical change in organic molecules in excited electronic states is charge transfer. 1 The charge transfer process can be intermolecular, involving an excited molecule and a neighboring molecule, one serving as an acceptor and the other as a donor molecule, or intramolecular, involving a charge redistribution in the excited molecule which produces a very large excited state dipole moment.In our investigations of the dynamics of these various charge transfer processes, a picosecond laser pulse was used to excite the molecules of interest. The charge transfer dynamics were monitored by a variety of techniques, including transient absorption of the excited charge transfer complex (exciplex) or ion radicals by a time delayed picosecond pulse, and fluorescence from the exciplex and from the initially excited molecule using a picosecond streak camera for detection.
