This looks like cool paper of our friends at MIT: Perhaps of interests
to the excitonics fans in the group!

The collective excited states (excitons) in supramolecular
light-harvesting systems depend intimately on their structure and it is
crucial to understand how these states interact. Now it is shown that
simple redox chemistry can be used to address this fundamental question
by simplifying the complex excitonic interactions in such
multichromophoric systems.
