Abstract
A model of charge separation in quantum photosynthesis as a model of quantum feedback control in a system of interacting excitons and vibrons is introduced. Quantum feedback in this approach describes the Landau--Zener transition with decoherence. The model explains irreversibility in the process of charge separation for quantum photosynthesis -- direct transitions for this quantum control model will have probabilities close to one and reverse transitions will have probabilities close to zero. This can be considered as a model of quantum ratchet. Also this model explains coincidence of energy of the vibron paired to the transition and Bohr frequency of the transition.
