Abstract
The nature of the initially excited state of the primary electron donor or special pair has been investigated by Stark effect spectroscopy for reaction centers from the photosynthetic bacteria Rhodopseudomonas viridis an Rhodobacter sphaeroides at 77 K. The data provide values for the magnitude of the difference in permanent dipole moment between the ground and excited state,Keywords
