As exposure to electromagnetic waves becomes increasingly widespread, it is important to quantify how incident fields couple into biological tissue and where absorbed energy is deposited. This work presents an analytical, physics based…
It is believed that the quantum coherence itself cannot explain the very high excitation energy transfer (EET) efficiency in the Fenna-Matthews-Olson (FMO) complex. In this paper, we show that this is not the case if the inter-site…
The present work deals with a theoretical research on the emission and radiation properties of a dipole emitter source close to a dimer graphene plasmonic antenna. Modification of the radiation and the quantum efficiencies resulting from…
Following the calculation of optimal energy transfer in thermal environment in our first paper (Wu et al., New J. Phys., 2010, 12, 105012), full quantum dynamics and leading-order `classical' hopping kinetics are compared in the seven-site…
Excitation energy transfer (EET) is one of the most important processes in both natural and artificial chemical systems including, for example, photosynthetic complexes and organic solar cells. The EET rate, however, is strongly suppressed…
Photosynthetic organisms harvest light energy, utilizing the absorption and energy transfer properties of protein-bound chromophores. Controlling the harvesting efficiency is critical for the optimal function of the photosynthetic…
We show that, on general theoretical grounds, transmission of light in graphene always presents a non-vanishing minimum value independently of any material and physical condition, the transmission coefficient being higher in the presence of…
Graphene is a promising material for ultrafast and broadband photodetection. Earlier studies addressed the general operation of graphene-based photo-thermoelectric devices, and the switching speed, which is limited by the charge carrier…
Exerting well-defined control over the reflection $(R)$, absorption $(A)$, and transmission $(T)$ of electromagnetic waves is a key objective in quantum optics. To this end, one often utilizes hybrid structures comprised of elements with…
Using methods of condensed matter and statistical physics, we examine the transport of excitons through the Fenna-Matthews-Olson (FMO) complex from a receiving antenna to a reaction center. Writing the equations of motion for the exciton…
The ability to control heat transport with electrical signals has been an outstanding challenge due to the lack of efficient electrothermal materials. Previous attempts have mainly concentrated on phase-change and layered materials and…
F\"orster theory describes electronic exciton energy migration in molecular assemblies as an incoherent hopping process between donor and acceptor molecules. The rate is expressed in terms of the overlap integral between donor fluorescence…
We investigated negative photoconductivity in graphene using ultrafast terahertz techniques. Infrared transmission was used to determine the Fermi energy, carrier density and mobility of p-type CVD graphene samples. Time-resolved terahertz…
We present an ab-initio study of photocarrier dynamics in graphene due to electron-phonon (EP) interactions. Using the Boltzmann relaxation-time approximation with parameters determined from density functional theory (DFT) and a…
Energy beamforming has emerged as a promising technique for enhancing the energy transfer efficiency of wireless power transfer (WPT). However, the performance of conventional energy beamforming may seriously degrade due to the non-linear…
Ultrafast optical pump-probe spectroscopy measurement on monolayer graphene observes significant optical nonlinearities. We show that strongly photoexcited graphene monolayers with 35 fs pulses quasi-instantaneously build up a broadband,…
This paper examines a fluid antenna (FA)-assisted simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) system. Unlike traditional SWIPT systems with fixed-position antennas (FPAs), our FA-assisted system enables dynamic…
A 1-dimensional model for coherent quantum energy transfer through a complex of compressible boxes is investigated by numerical integration of the time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation. Energy is communicated from one box to the next by the…
We present an analytical model for Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) between a donor and an acceptor placed in inhomogeneous and absorptive environment characterized by complex dielectric function, e.g., near a metal-dielectric…
The non-hermitian quantum dynamics of excitonic energy transfer in photosynthetic systems is investigated using a dissipative two-level dimer model. The approach is based on the Green's function formalism which permits consideration of…
