    "abstract": "We show that the quantum decoherence of Forster resonant energy transfer\nbetween two optically active molecules can be described by a spin-boson model.\nThis allows us to give quantitative criteria, in terms of experimentally\nmeasurable system parameters, that are necessary for coherent Bloch\noscillations of excitons between the chromophores. Experimental tests of our\nresults should be possible with Flourescent Resonant Energy Transfer (FRET)\nspectroscopy. Although we focus on the case of protein-pigment complexes our\nresults are also relevant to quantum dots and organic molecules in a dielectric\nmedium.",
