Abstract
The electronic excited states of molecular aggregates and their photophysical signatures have long fascinated spectroscopists and theoreticians alike since the advent of Frenkel exciton theory almost 90 years ago. The influence of molecular packing on basic optical probes like absorption and photoluminescence was originally worked out by Kasha for aggregates dominated by Coulombic intermolecular interactions, eventually leading to the classification of J- and H-aggregates. This review outlines advances made in understanding the relationship between aggregate structure and photophysics when vibronic coupling and intermolecular charge transfer are incorporated. An assortment of packing geometries is considered from the humble molecular dimer to more exotic structures including linear and bent aggregates, two-dimensional herringbone and "HJ" aggregates, and chiral aggregates. The interplay between long-range Coulomb coupling and short-range charge-transfer-mediated coupling strongly depends on the aggregate architecture leading to a wide array of photophysical behaviors.

Abstract
We investigate the exciton migration dynamics in a dendritic molecular model composed of pi-conjugation linear-leg units (acetylenes and diacetylene) and a benzene ring (branching point) using the quantum master equation approach with the ab initio molecular orbital (MO) configuration interaction (CI) method. The efficient migration of exciton from short-length linear legs (acetylenes) to long-length linear leg (diacetylene) via a benzene ring is observed. As predicted in previous studies, the exciton (electron and hole) distributions are relatively well localized in each generation segmented by the meta-branching point (meta-substituted benzene ring) though the electron and hole distributions are delocalized and are somewhat spatially different from each other within each generation. It is found that the excitons localized in the generation composed of short linear legs occupy in higher-lying exciton states, while those in the generation composed of long linear legs do in lower-lying ones. These features suggest the decoupling of pi-conjugation at the meta-branching point. On the other hand, the relaxation effect between exciton states is found to be caused by the exciton-phonon coupling, in which the existence of common configurations (electron-hole pairs) in CI wave functions between adjacent exciton states (having primary distributions on short and long linear-leg regions, respectively) is important for the relaxation between their exciton states. This feature indicates the importance of partial penetration of pi-conjugation through the meta-substituted benzene ring in excited states for such exciton migration.
