Vibration-assisted coherent excitation energy transfer in a detuned dimer Project supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant No. 11174233). |
(color online) Configurations of the energy levels and transitions when both donor and acceptor are coupled to an identical vibrational mode. The red (dashed) arrow lines represent the original detuned energy transfer process, which hardly succeeds due to the mismatched energy levels. The blue (solid) arrow lines show the phonon-assisted energy transfer process. |
