Abstract The UV light absorbing species of proteorhodopsin with deprotonated Schiff base retinal was investigated using steady-state fluorescence and femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy. Compared to the all-trans retinal with protonated Schiff base, the deprotonated chromophore absorbs at 365 nm and exhibits a blue-shifted fluorescence spectrum. The unusually long-lived excited state decays bi-exponentially with time constants of 8 ps and 130 ps to form a deprotonated 13-cis retinal as the primary photo-product.

In photosynthetic green bacteria, chlorosomes provide light harvesting with high efficiency. Chlorosomal carotenoids (Cars) participate in light harvesting together with the main pigment, bacteriochlorophyll (BChl) c/d/e. In the present work,...

As previously reported, photoisomerization of the open-shell singlet biradicaloid [TerNP]2CNDmp yields its closed-shell housane-type isomer. In the present study, pump-probe spectroscopy was applied to investigate the excited-state dynamics of the...
