The DNA molecule, well known from biology for containing the genetic code of all living
species, has recently caught the attention of chemists and physicists. A major reason for this …

We report theoretical studies of charge transport in single-stranded DNA in the direction
perpendicular to the backbone axis. We find that, if the electrodes which sandwich the DNA …

According to Bloch's theorem, electronic wavefunctions in perfectly ordered crystals are
extended, which implies that the probability of finding an electron is the same over the entire …

YA Berlin, IV Kurnikow, D. Beratan, MA Ratner, AL Burin: DNA Electron Transfer Processes:
Some Theoretical Notions; N. Rosch, AA Voityuk: Quantum Chemical Calculation of Donor …

We report on coherent charge transport studies in periodic Poly (dG)-Poly (dC) and
aperiodic λ-phage DNA sequences. The extent and efficiency of charge transfer is discussed …

The electronic coupling V da is the parameter which determines most strongly how the
charge-transfer rate between donor and acceptor depends on the distance between the …

Nucleic acids and proteins are not only biologically important polymers. They have recently
been recognized as novel functional materials surpassing conventional materials in many …

We report electrical transport through 60 base pairs of polydG-polydC DNA molecules. The
DNA solution is dropped on two metal electrodes with the gap of 20 nm. The current–voltage …

We report on theoretical results about contact-dependent effects and tunneling currents
through DNA molecules. A tetranucleotide PolyGACT chain, connected in between metallic …

Complementary, single-strands of DNA (ssDNA), one bound to a gold electrode and the
other to a gold nanoparticle were hybridized on the surface to form a self-assembled, dsDNA …
