Non-polar solvation dynamics has been investigated using steady-state absorption and emission spectroscopy of the NO A(2)Sigma(+)(3ssigma) Rydberg state in fluid Ar over a wide range of densities spanning the supercritical regime. Equilibrium molecular dyn ...
Photo-induced excited-state reactions stand in the center of function of the photosensitive biological systems. These reactions can be accompanied by structural changes of the chromophore (for example isomerization) which are influenced by the nearest envi ...
This thesis presents a comparative study of the ultrafast solvation dynamics of liquids in bulk conditions, and at the interfaces of metal-IV oxides (specifically TiO2 and ZrO2), using ultrafast spectroscopy techniques. In the first part of the thesis we r ...

The dye coumarin 343 (C343) adsorbed on the surface of ZrO2 nanoparticles in aq. solns. was used to study the solvation dynamics close to these surfaces. The time-resolved Stokes shift was measured by femtosecond frequency-resolved upconversion. The absorp ...

The excitation of the Rydberg states is used to study the nonpolar solvation dynamics in supercrit. fluids (SCFs). The system NO in supercrit. Ar serves as the model system. First, the steady-state, absorption and fluorescence spectra of the NO X 2P-A 2S+( ...

Limited searching in the conformational space is one of the major obstacles for investigating protein dynamics by numerical approaches. For this reason, classical all-atom mol. dynamics (MD) simulations of proteins tend to be confined to local energy min., ...
Wavelength- and time-resolved fluorescence expts. have been performed on the photoactive yellow protein, the E46Q mutant, the hybrids of these proteins contg. a nonisomerizing "locked" chromophore, and the native and locked chromophores in aq. soln. The ...
The environment is important for the exact course of a chemical reaction. As an example of the strong influence of the environment on the reaction, this work studies the isomerization reaction of the chromophore retinal in the binding pocket of the protein ...
Autofluorescence bronchoscopy is a promising approach to detect and characterize precancerous and early cancerous lesions. Nevertheless, many spectral features of photodetection systems remain unclear and sub-optimal at the present time. We report here a c ...
Steady-state and picosecond (ps) fluorescence studies of wild-type bacteriorhodopsin (wt-bR) and of a nonisomerizing analog locked in the all-trans configuration have been performed. Extending earlier work done by femtosecond absorption spectroscopy, we ob ...
