BR-D96N was a genetically mutated product of bacteriorhodopsin (BR) with obvious improved photochromic effect. Compared with the wild type BR, BR-D96N had a lifetime of M state prolonged to 5 min, showing obvious saturation absorption and lower light intensity in saturation absorption (0.4 mW/cm(2)).

Article Synopsis
  • Oriented bacteriorhodopsin films were created on ITO glass using electrophoretic and Langmuir-Blodgett methods for photocell development.
  • The pulse response photovoltage was measured, highlighting two different responses: a fast initial charge separation and a slower differential response.
  • The initial fast response is linked to the ultrafast charge separation of retinal, while the slower response involves the dynamics of proton flow in the bacteriorhodopsin photocell.

Based on experimental measurement of the pulse response of the bacteriorhodopsin (BR) film photocell, the impact response function of the device is obtained by data fitting with MATLAB software. A simulation system is accordingly built with the SIMULINK module. The output response signals of the BR film photocell under different stepping incident light are calculated based on this simulation system.
