Frenkel-exciton vibrational

In the next section we present a closed form expression for the vibrational response function using the Frenkel-exciton model. 

We model the amide band as a system of N interacting localized vibrations. For the sake of third-order spectroscopies, we only need to consider the lowest three levels of each peptide group with energies 0, Gm, Gnl(m = 1,..., N). The matrix elements of the dipole operator corresponding to the 0-1 and 1-2 transitions are denoted /j.m and //ra, respectively, and their ratio is Km = To introduce the vibrational Frenkel exciton model,...
