Strong influence of water molecules on the transport and magnetic properties of DNA, observed in this study, opens up real opportunities for application of DNA in molecular electronics. Interaction of the nucleobases with water molecules…
The wrapping equilibria of one and two adsorbing cylinders are studied along a semi-flexible filament (polymer) due to the interplay between elastic rigidity and short-range adhesive energy between the cylinder and the filament. We show…
The fluctuations of the charge on an electrode contain information on the microscopic correlations within the adjacent fluid and their effect on the electronic properties of the interface. We investigate these fluctuations using molecular…
The interplay between bending of the molecule axis and appearance of disruptions in circular DNA molecules, with $\sim 100$ base pairs, is addressed. Three minicircles with different radii and almost equal content of AT and GC pairs are…
We develop a correlation-corrected transport theory in order to predict ionic and polymer transport properties of membrane nanopores in physical conditions where mean-field electrostatics breaks down. The experimentally observed low KCl…
We study electronic transport in long DNA chains using the tight-binding approach for a ladder-like model of DNA. We find insulating behavior with localizaton lengths xi ~ 25 in units of average base-pair seperation. Furthermore, we observe…
Several controversial issues concerning the packing of linear DNA in bacteriophages and globules are discussed. Exact relations for the osmotic pressure, capsid pressure and loading force are derived in terms of the hole size inside phages…
This study applies response theory to investigate electron charge dynamics, with a particular focus on charge separation. We analytically assess the strengths and limitations of linear and quadratic response theories in describing charge…
The first part of this paper develops a theory for the free energy of lyotropic polymer nematic liquid crystals. We use a continuum model with macroscopic elastic moduli for a polymer nematic phase. By evaluating the partition function,…
We present a systematic investigation of the low-frequency charge carrier dynamics in different charge states of the organic conductors $\theta$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$$M$Zn(SCN)$_4$ with $M$=Rb,Tl, which result from quenching or relaxing the charge…
Here we present the calculations of incoherent current flowing through the two-site molecular device as well as the DNA-based junction within the rate-equation approach. Few interesting phenomena are discussed in detail. Structural…
The flexibility and the extension along the direction of the force are shown to be related to the bubble number fluctuation and the average number of bubbles respectively, when the strands of the DNA are subjected to a force along the same…
The effective DNA-DNA interaction force is calculated by computer simulations with explicit tetravalent counterions and monovalent salt. For overcharged DNA molecules, the interaction force shows a double-minimum structure. The positions…
In this letter we analyze the effects of an externally applied electric field on thermal fluctuations for a fluid containing charged species. We show in particular that the fluctuating Poisson-Nernst-Planck equations for charged…
Effects of the adsorption-desorption process on the immittance response of an electrolytic cell are theoretically investigated in the framework of the diffusional Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) continuum model, when the generation and…
We use optical tweezers to perform stretching experiments on DNA molecules when interacting with the drugs daunomycin and ethidium bromide, which intercalate the DNA molecule. These experiments are performed in the low-force regime from…
We report studies of the equilibrium and the dynamics of a general set of lattice models which capture the essence of the force-induced or mechanical DNA unzipping transition. Besides yielding the whole equilibrium phase diagram in the…
We study the fluctuation entropy for two-dimensional matter systems with an internal symmetry coupled to Jackiw--Teitelboim(JT) gravity joined to a Minkowski region. The fluctuation entropy is the Shannon entropy associated to probabilities…
We study charge fluctuations in single-file dynamics with general charge measures. The exact finite-time distribution of charge fluctuations is obtained in terms of a dressing transformation acting on the finite-time distribution of…
By means of the concept of factorial moment the charge transfer rates in DNA segments with fractal structures are investigated. An analytical form for the electron transfer rate is obtained.
