Structure, red-shifted absorption and electron transport properties of specific aggregates of chlorophylls

Neutron small-angle scattering from chlorophyll aggregates formed by hydration in octane/toluene mixtures show that specific structures can form which are long hollow cylinders. The cylinder diameters, absorption spectra and electron transport properties depend on the chlorophyll type. Results for 2...

Description
Summary:Neutron small-angle scattering from chlorophyll aggregates formed by hydration in octane/toluene mixtures show that specific structures can form which are long hollow cylinders. The cylinder diameters, absorption spectra and electron transport properties depend on the chlorophyll type. Results for 2-acetyl chlorophyll-a (a synthetic derivative of chlorophyll-a) and chlorophyll a/b mixtures are presented.
