The formation of bubble defects of the double stranded DNA is treated according to the Lifshits theory of disordered chains. A molecule of the DNA is modelled on a harmonic lattice with nearest neighbour interaction, elastic constants being…
The attenuation of phonon modes of the DNA is due to the exchange of water molecules adsorbed by a molecule of DNA and the bulk solvent. Using Maxwell's mechanism of relaxation and a simple lattice model of the DNA, we show that the…
We study the internal resonance, energy transfer, activation mechanism, and control of a model of DNA division via parametric resonance. While the system is robust to noise, this study shows that it is sensitive to specific fine scale modes…
We numerically study stochastic resonance in the unzipping of a model double-stranded DNA by a periodic force. We observe multiple peaks in stochastic resonance in the output signal as the driving force frequency is varied for different…
We consider the regime in which the bands of the torsional acoustic (TA) and the hydrogen-bond-stretch (HBS) modes of the DNA interpenetrate each other. Within the framework of a model that accommodates the structure of the double helix, we…
Phononic integrated circuits, which manipulate GHz-frequency acoustic fields in {\mu}m-scale waveguides, provide new degrees of freedom for routing and manipulation of microwaves in deeply sub-wavelength geometries with associated…
A dynamical system of equations describing parametric sound generation (PSG) in a dispersive large aspect ratio resonator is derived. The model generalizes previously proposed descriptions of PSG by including diffraction effects, and is…
It is shown that information transmission inside a cell can occur by means of mechanical waves transmitted through DNA. The propagation of the waves is strongly dependent on the shape of the DNA thus proteins that change the shape of DNA…
We calculate the rate of acoustic phonon generation by a current-carrying, ballistic quantum channel, defined in a two-dimensional electron gas by a split-gate. Both uniform and nonuniform channels are considered. The generation rate of…
The instantaneous normal modes corresponding to base pair vibrations (radial modes) and twist angle fluctuations (angular modes) of a DNA molecule model at ambient temperature are theoretically investigated. Due to thermal disorder, normal…
A design for photoacoustic mass sensors operating above 100 GHz is proposed. The design is based on impulsive optical excitation of a pseudosurface acoustic wave in a surface phononic crystal with nanometric periodic grating, and on…
Some bacterial and viral DNA sequences have been found to induce low frequency electromagnetic waves in high aqueous dilutions. This phenomenon appears to be triggered by the ambient electromagnetic background of very low frequency. We…
We explore pump-probe high harmonic generation (HHG) from monolayer hexagonal-Boron-Nitride, where a terahertz pump excites coherent optical phonons that are subsequently probed by an intense infrared pulse that drives HHG. We find, through…
Unusually high bending flexibility has been recently reported for DNA on short length scales. We use atomic force microscopy (AFM) in solution to obtain a direct estimate of DNA bending statistics for scales down to one helical turn. It…
On-chip laterally confined GHz acoustic modes with tunable helicity open the way for advanced optomechanical functionalities. Here, we demonstrate a novel concept for the implementation of these functionalites through the electrical…
Genetic sequences are known to possess non-trivial composition together with symmetries in the frequencies of their components. Recently, it has been shown that symmetry and structure are hierarchically intertwined in DNA, suggesting a…
We use metal nanostructures (nanoplasmonics) excited with dual frequency lasers to generate and detect high frequency (> 10 GHz) sound wave resonances in water. The difference frequency between the two lasers causes beating in the…
In this letter we uncover a new parametric resonance of axionic cosmic strings. This process is triggered by the presence on the string of internal mode excitations that resonantly amplify the amplitude of transverse displacements of the…
The electrodynamic response of DNA in the millimeter wave range is investigated. By performing measurements under a wide range of humidity conditions and comparing the response of single strand DNA and double strand DNA, we show that the…
We propose a nonlinear model derived from first principles, to describe bubble dynamics of DNA. Our model equations include a term derived from the dissipative effect of intermolecular vibrational modes. Such modes are excited by the…
