Abstract

Photon-echo and transient hole-burning experiments on the P-band of the reaction center of photosystem II are reported which show that the P-band exhibits a large homogeneous width. A photon-echo signal with a decay time of 500 ps is also observed in the same spectral region and assigned to extraneous chlorophyll. These observations are discussed with reference to the bacterial reaction center and photosystem I.
