▪ Abstract Single-molecule spectroscopy (SMS) is a powerful experimental technique used
to investigate a wide range of physical, chemical, and biophysical phenomena. The merit of …

We have investigated the energy landscape of the bacterial photosynthetic peripheral light-
harvesting complex LH2 of purple bacterium Rhodopseudomonas acidophila by monitoring …

We have studied the relationship between the realizations of static disorder and the
emission spectra observed for a single LH2 complex. We show that the experimentally …

Applying single-molecule spectroscopic techniques allowed us to determine the mutual
angles between the transition-dipole moments associated with optical transitions of the eight …

We have studied the spectroscopic properties of the B850 excitations of the peripheral light-
harvesting complex (LH2) from Rhodopseudomonas acidophila utilizing single-molecule …

For a model of the B850 band in the light harvesting complex 2 of purple bacteria, the main
quantum mechanical characteristics of the single complex line shapes are studied based on …

Nanorods produced from the sodium salt of tetrakis (4-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrin, dissolved
in acidic aqueous solutions, were deposited onto Au (111) substrates and imaged by atomic …
