1 Introduction The optical properties of chlorophyll (Chl) pigments including their sunlight absorption and (far-)red to near-infrared light emission are crucial for light harvesting, excitation energy migrating and transferring, charge separating, and electron transporting processes in the initial stages of natural photosynthesis, which occur in antenna and reaction center apparatuses [1].
1 INTRODUCTION Chlorophylls (Chls) are the most abundant pigments in phototrophs and function in light-harvesting and energy-migrating antennas and electron-transferring reaction centers.1, 2 Chl molecules are stereochemically pure compounds within photosynthetic organisms.3, 4 Specifically, Chl-a is found in oxygenic phototrophs including higher plants, algae, and cyanobacteria,5-7 and its molecular structure is illustrated in the left drawing of Figure 1.
