Abstract: We analyze all-optical switching in chlorophyll-A (Chl-A) molecules for different combinations of pump-probe wavelengths, based on nonlinear intensity-induced excited-state absorption. It is ...

Phototropin is a plant blue-light sensor protein that possesses a flavin mononucleotide (FMN) as the chromophore in LOV domains. Its photoreaction is an adduct formation between FMN and a nearby ...
