Tryptophan-to-heme electron transfer in ferrous myoglobins

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Andre Al Haddad, Gerald Auböck, Roberto Monni

It was recently demonstrated that in ferric myoglobins (Mb) the fluorescence quenching of the photoexcited tryptophan 14 (*Trp(14)) residue is in part due to an electron transfer to the heme porphyrin (porph), turning it to the ferrous state. However, the ...

A cascade through spin states in the ultrafast haem relaxation of met-myoglobin

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Cristina Consani, Gerald Auböck, Olivier Christian Bräm

We report on a study of the early relaxation processes of met-Myoglobin in aqueous solution, using a combination of ultrafast broadband fluorescence detection and transient absorption with a broad UV-visible continuum probe at different pump energies. Reco ...

Ultrafast Tryptophan-to-Heme Electron Transfer in Myoglobins Revealed by UV 2D Spectroscopy

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Cristina Consani, Gerald Auböck

Tryptophan is commonly used to study protein structure and dynamics, such as protein folding, as a donor in fluorescence resonant energy transfer (FRET) studies. By using ultra-broadband ultrafast two-dimensional (2D) spectroscopy in the ultraviolet (UV) a ...

Ultrabroadband femtosecond two-dimensional ultraviolet transient absorption

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Cristina Consani, Gerald Auböck

We present a broadband two-dimensional transient absorption setup for the UV around 300 nm with a time resolution of 150 fs. A narrowband, frequency tunable pump pulse and a broadband probe pulse are generated from the output of a noncollinear optical para ...

Femtosecond pump/supercontinuum-probe setup with 20 kHz repetition rate

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Andrea Cannizzo, Cristina Consani, Gerald Auböck, Roberto Monni

We developed a fast multichannel detection system for pump-probe spectroscopy, capable of detecting single shot super-continuum spectra at the repetition rate (10-50 kHz) of an amplified femtosecond laser system. By tandem pumping the amplifier with three ...

Femtosecond carrier dynamics in bulk graphite and graphene paper

Majed Chergui, Fabrizio Carbone, Frank van Mourik, Andrea Cannizzo, Gerald Auböck

Femtosecond white-light continuum probe transient absorption and reflectivity measurements of bulk graphite and graphene paper are reported. In graphite, the relaxation of photoinduced electron–hole pairs happens through in-plane electron–electron and elec ...

Ultrafast (Bio)physical and (Bio)chemical Dynamics

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Andrea Cannizzo, Amal El Nahhas, Renske Marjan van der Veen, Cristina Consani, Ahmad Ajdar Zadeh Oskouei, Gerald Auböck, Olivier Christian Bräm

We give an overview of our recent work on ultrafast dynamics of chemical (organic dyes, metal-complexes, colloidal quantum dots), and biological (retinal and haem proteins) systems in the liquid phase, studied with a variety of ultrafast optical techniques ...

Multiphoton-Excited Luminescent Lanthanide Bioprobes: Two- and Three-Photon Cross Sections of Dipicolinate Derivatives and Binuclear Helicates

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Majed Chergui, Anne-Sophie Chauvin, Svetlana Eliseeva, Frank van Mourik, Bo Song, Andrea Cannizzo, Gerald Auböck

Multiphoton excited luminescent properties of water-soluble EuIII and TbIII complexes with derivatives of dipicolinic acid functionalized with a polyoxyethylene pendant arm and terminal groups, [Eu(LOMe)3]3-, [Eu(LNH2)3]3-, and [Tb(LOH)3]3-, as well as of ...
