Theoretical Analysis of Energy and Electron Transfer Processes in Multimolecular Nanoassemblies
Abstract
Using the method of balance equations, the quantitative analysis of the femtosecond transient spectroscopy results was carried out upon study the processes of electronic excitation energy transfer and photoinduced electron transfer in self-assembled triads based on Zn-octaethylporphyrin chemical dimer (the energy/electron donor) and di-pyridyl substituted porphyrin extra-ligands (acceptor). Based on the reduced density matrix formalism in the frame of Foerster and Marcus theories the competitive role of the above processes was evaluated upon variation of the solvent temperature and polarity.
