Disorder in DNA-linked gold nanoparticle assemblies.
We report experimental observations on the effect of disorder on the phase behavior of DNA-linked nanoparticle assemblies. Variation in DNA linker lengths results in different melting temperatures of the DNA-linked nanoparticle assemblies. We observed an unusual trend of a nonmonotonic "zigzag" pattern in the melting temperature as a function of DNA linker length. Linker DNA resulting in unequa...

Submitted for the MAR05 Meeting of The American Physical Society Disorder in DNA-Linked Gold Nanoparticle Assemblies NOLAN HARRIS, CHING-HWA KIANG, Physics & Astronomy, Rice University — We report experimental observations of the effects of disorder on the phase behavior of DNA-linked nanoparticle networks. Variation in DNA linker lengths results in different melting temperatures, and hence sta...
متن کاملPhase Transition of DNA-Linked Gold Nanoparticle
Melting and hybridization of DNA-capped gold nanoparticle networks are investigated with optical absorption spectroscopy. Single-stranded, 12-base DNA-capped gold nanoparticles are linked with complementary, single-stranded, 24-base linker DNA to form particle networks. Compared to free DNA, a sharp melting transition is seen in these networked DNA-nanoparticle systems. The sharpness is explain...
متن کاملPhase Transition and Optical Properties of DNA-Gold Nanoparticle Assemblies.
We review recent work on DNA-linked gold nanoparticle assemblies. The synthesis, properties, and phase behavior of such DNA-gold nanoparticle assemblies are described. These nanoparticle assemblies have strong optical extinction in the ultraviolet and visible light regions; hence, the technique is used to study the kinetics and phase transitions of DNA-gold nanoparticle assemblies. The melting ...
متن کاملPhase behavior and selectivity of DNA-linked nanoparticle assemblies.
We propose a model that can account for the experimentally observed phase behavior of DNA-nanoparticle assemblies [J. Am. Chem. Soc. 125, 1643 (2003)]; Science 289, 1757 (2000)]]. The binding of DNA-coated nanoparticles by dissolved DNA linkers can be described by exploiting an analogy with quantum particles obeying fractional statistics. In accordance with experimental findings, we predict tha...
