In this work, novel computational approaches are developed for the quantitative calculation of optical properties of chromophores in biologic systems. To investigate the influence of interactions between a chromophore and its molecular environment (protein, membrane, solvent), different theoretical approaches, which describe the matter at different length- and timescales, in a "multi-scale approach", which is tested on proteins of the rhodopsin family. In these proteins, acting as visual pigments or light-driven proton pumps in halobacteria, the optical absorbtion maximum of retinal is shifted over a wide spectral range. For the quantum mechanical (QM) description of the chromophore, appropriate approximations are found, which correctly de...
