Abstract
In brief, the Förster theory (FT) of electronic energy transfer (EET) between/among fluorescent and non-fluorescent molecules is discussed.
Here the EFT concerns applications for quantitative studies of biomolecular systems, in particular lipid membranes and proteins. The EET may take place within pairs of chromophores, as well as within random or regularly ordered distributions of chromophores. Described and exemplified are also relations between experimental data and theories.
Discussed finally are suggestions that aim at further extending the applicability of the FT.
