We were able to resolve the decay at 20 K into two components with the dominant component having a similar lifetime to that observed at room temperature. This strongly suggests that the retinal lifetime at physiological temperature is barrierless. The minor, low-temperature long-lived component is discussed in terms of previous results obtained for fluorescence and transient absorption with lower time resolution, and the origin of this component is discussed in terms of low-temperature glass heterogeneity.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">WOS:000072904200001</style></accession-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Logunov, SL Masciangioli, TM Kamalov, VF El-Sayed, MA</style></notes><electronic-resource-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1021/jp972921a</style></electronic-resource-num></record></records></xml>
