== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Remembering</span> == * '''Quantum Coherence''' (Photosynthetic) β The "State" where a "Light-harvesting Protein" "Maintains" "Phase Relationships" between "Energy States," "Allowing" for "Wave-like" "Energy Transfer." * '''Excitation''' (Exciton) β (See Article 706). The "Packet of Energy" "Created" when a "Photon" "Hits" a "Chlorophyll Molecule." * '''Reaction Center''' β The "Core" of the "Photosynthetic Complex" where "Energy" is "Converted" into "Chemical Potential" (Charge separation). * '''FMO Complex''' β (Fenna-Matthews-Olson). A "Light-harvesting Green Sulfur Bacteria" "Protein" that is the "Model System" for "Studying" "Quantum Coherence." * '''Quantum Beats''' β "Oscillations" in "Light Absorption/Emission" that "Provide" "Scientific Evidence" of "Quantum Coherence" in biological samples. * '''Quantum Efficiency''' β The "Ratio" of "Photons Absorbed" to "Electrons Produced": in "Photosynthesis," this is **"Near 100%."** * '''Vibronic Coupling''' β The "Interaction" between "Electronic States" and **"Molecular Vibrations"** (Phonons) that "Help" "Maintain" "Coherence" in a "Noisy Environment." * '''2D Electronic Spectroscopy''' β The "Advanced Laser Technique" used to "Detect" "Quantum States" in "Proteins." * '''Decoherence Time''' β The "Duration" a "Quantum State" "Lasts": "Surprisingly Long" in "Biology" (Picoseconds). * '''Photosystem II''' (PSII) β (See Article 148). The "Massive Complex" that "Splits Water" using "Quantum Energy." </div> <div style="background-color: #006400; color: #FFFFFF; padding: 20px; border-radius: 8px; margin-bottom: 15px;">
