Abstract

The: kinetic limits for light energy transduction are explored
by using one simple model for the light activated proton pump.
In the far from equilibrium steady state of biological interest the
efficiency of free energy transfer and entropy production can be
simultaneously maximized with respect to kinetic constants for
excited state relaxation.
