Chern Chuang

Recent advances in experimental characterization of natural (chlorosome in green sulfur bacteria) and artificial tubular aggregates had shed light on the optical and dynamical energy transfer properties of these systems. My current work is focusing on the calculation these physical properties based on exciton models. In specific, we apply the theory of multichromophoric Foerster resonance energy transfer to these gigantic light-harvesting systems.
