Abstract
We developed the theory of excitation energy transfer (EET) in the intermediate coupling case using the decoupling procedure. We succeeded in treating the theory analytically by assuming that the two-time correlation function is represented as an exponential function. We examined the validity of its approximation. We calculated the time dependent probability na(t) of the EET, in which the acceptor molecule is in the excited state by making alternative calculation of the cumulant expansion method. Applying this calculation by this method to the photosynthetic antenna systems and comparing its result with the analytical formula, we found that these results coincide well with each other in the due time region of the approximation.
