Abstract: | Ultrafast polarization-sensitive infrared (IR) spectroscopy of the C=O stretching mode of the chromophore of the green fluorescent protein reveals a near complete twisting around the ethylenic bridge between the phenolate and imidazolidinone groups upon electronic excitation, hinting at a decisive role of this motion in the efficient internal conversion process. |
