TABLE 3.

Characteristics of the red-most band of Lhca3, Lhca4, and the Lhca1–4 dimer

Sample	Absorption (nm)	Emission (nm)	Sν (from gap ex vs. em) (cm−1)	Sν (from the Stokes shift) (cm−1)
Lhca3	704.8	725	280	200
Lhca4	707.8	733	325 (350)	240
Lhca1–4	709.3	732.5	325	230

The gap between the excitation and the emission maximum upon excitation at the very red edge of the absorption spectra (region where the slope s = 1) provides the values for the reorganization energy. Sν from the Stokes shift was calculated using Stokes shift = 2Sν (see text).
