40. Note that intercomplex coherence should not be confused with electronic coherence between the excitons within an individual complex. While electronic coherence results from quantum superpositions of electronic states in a given complex, intercomplex coherence is a result of classically coherent laser light initiating the dynamics of multiple redundant complexes simultaneously.
