Abstract

The excited states of sets of the cofactors found in the photosystem II reaction centre have been calculated directly as a multi-monomer supermolecule for the first time. Time-dependent density functional theory was used with the CAM-B3LYP functional. Multiple excited states for each cofactor were found at lower energies than the lowest energy state corresponding to charge transfer states (in which an electron is shifted from one cofactor to another). The electrostatic environment was found to have a dramatic impact on the excited state energies, with the effect of a surrounding dielectric medium being less significant.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
