Electric-field dependence of the quantum yield in reaction centers of photosynthetic bacteria
Abstract
Multilayer Langmuir-Blodgett films of reaction centers from the photosynthetic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides have been fabricated with partial net orientation. The films showed substantial electrical response under pulsed illumination. From measurements of the light-induced voltage generated across the Langmuir-Blodgett film, we have succeeded in quantitating the electric-field dependence of the quantum yield of charge separation in …
