Abstract

AbstractIn this review, we present a microscopic theory for describing photo‐induced radiationless transitions. For this purpose, we state that introducing the density matrix method can not only treat the dynamics due to the radiationless transitions but also deal with the population and coherence dynamics. We briefly review several rate constants of the radiationless transitions and the analytic estimation methods of those rate constants. Finally, we present the applications of the theoretical treatment to the rapid electron transfer and energy transfer taking place in the photosynthetic reaction centers.
