We describe details of the setup for time-resolved impulsive stimulated Raman spectroscopy (TR-ISRS). In this method, snapshot molecular vibrational spectra of the photoreaction transients are captured via time-domain Raman probing using ultrashor...

Green fluorescent protein (GFP) from jellyfish Aequorea victoria, an essential bioimaging tool, luminesces via excited-state proton transfer (ESPT) in which the phenolic proton of the p-hydroxybenzylideneimidazolinone chromophore is transferred to...

Au-Au bond strengthening in photoexcited dimers of an Au(I) complex is captured in solution as oscillations of femtosecond absorption signals. The subsequent dynamics, when compared to the trimer's data, confirm that the bent-to-linear structural ...

We report the first femtosecond time-resolved absorption study on ultrafast photoreaction dynamics of a recently discovered retinal protein, KR2, which functions as a light-driven sodium-ion pump. The obtained data show that the excited-state abso...
