In the context of Frenkel exciton dynamics in aggregated molecules the polaron transformation technique facilitates a treatment where diagonal elements attributed to electronic excited-state populations are decoupled from fluctuations…
Simulating the irreversible quantum dynamics of exciton and electron transfer problems poses a nontrivial challenge. Because the irreversibility of the system dynamics is a result of quantum thermal activation and dissipation caused by the…
Time-resolved spectroscopy provides the main tool for analyzing the dynamics of excitonic energy transfer in light-harvesting complexes. To infer time-scales and effective coupling parameters from experimental data requires to develop…
Excitonic models of light-harvesting complexes, where the vibrational degrees of freedom are treated as a bath, are commonly used to describe the motion of the electronic excitation through a molecule. Recent experiments point toward the…
We study excitation transfer dynamics in a lattice of two level systems characterized by dynamic disorder. The diagonal and off-diagonal energy disorders arise from the coupling of system and bath. We consider both the same and the…
We derive a Hierarchical Equations of Motion (HEOM) description of nonadiabatic Herzberg-Teller type coupling effects and of non-Condon effects in a system of electronic transitions interacting with intra- and inter-molecular vibrational…
The quantum dynamics of linear molecular aggregates in the presence of S0-S1 and S0-S2 transitions is investigated putting emphasis on the interplay between local non-adiabatic S2 to S1 deactivation and Frenkel exciton transfer. The…
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…
We theoretically investigate an exciton transfer process in a donor domain of organic photovoltaic cells focusing on the roles of local and nonlocal electron-phonon interactions. Our model consists of a three-level system described by the…
We theoretically investigate an exciton-coupled electron transfer (XCET) process that is conversion of an exciton into a charge transfer state. This conversion happens in an exciton transfer (XT) process, and the electron moves away in an…
We rigorously investigate the quantum non-Markovian dissipative dynamics of a system coupled to a harmonic oscillator bath by deriving hierarchical Schrodinger equations of motion (HSEOM) and studying their dynamics. The HSEOM are the…
Strong coupling between molecular excitations and quantized electromagnetic fields in optical cavities provides a powerful means to control the physical and chemical properties of molecular systems. Here, we study electron transfer (ET)…
One of the approaches used to solve for the dynamics of open quantum systems is the hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM). Although it is numerically exact, this method requires immense computational resources to solve. The objective here…
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…
Non-Markovian and non-equilibrium phonon effects are believed to be key ingredients in the energy transfer in photosynthetic complexes, especially in complexes which exhibit a regime of intermediate exciton-phonon coupling. In this work, we…
The interplay between coherence and system-environment interactions is at the basis of a wide range of phenomena, from quantum information processing to charge and energy transfer in molecular systems, biomolecules, and photochemical…
Numerically "exact" methods addressing the dynamics of coupled electron--phonon systems have been intensively developed. Nevertheless, the corresponding results for the electron mobility $\mu_\mathrm{dc}$ are scarce, even for the…
The hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) provide a numerically exact approach for simulating the dynamics of open quantum systems coupled to a harmonic bath. However, its applicability has traditionally been limited to specific spectral…
We present a rigorous theoretical description of excitonic dynamics in molecular light-harvesting aggregates photoexcited by weak-intensity radiation of arbitrary properties. While the interaction with light is included up to the second…
Exciton dissociation via the excitonic Mott transition (EMT) governs the high-density optical response of semiconductors and sets fundamental limits for optoelectronic devices. The EMT is conventionally linked to the onset of population…
