Silicene-based DNA Nucleobase Sensing
We propose a DNA sequencing scheme based on silicene nanopores. Using first principles theory, we compute the electrical properties of such pores in the absence and presence of nucleobases. Within a two-terminal geometry, we analyze the current-voltage relation in the presence of nucleobases with various orientations. We demonstrate that when nucleobases pass through a pore, even after sampling...
متن کاملDNA translocation through graphene nanopores.
We report on DNA translocations through nanopores created in graphene membranes. Devices consist of 1-5 nm thick graphene membranes with electron-beam sculpted nanopores from 5 to 10 nm in diameter. Due to the thin nature of the graphene membranes, we observe larger blocked currents than for traditional solid-state nanopores. However, ionic current noise levels are several orders of magnitude l...
متن کاملDNA translocation through graphene nanopores.
Nanopores--nanosized holes that can transport ions and molecules--are very promising devices for genomic screening, in particular DNA sequencing. Solid-state nanopores currently suffer from the drawback, however, that the channel constituting the pore is long, approximately 100 times the distance between two bases in a DNA molecule (0.5 nm for single-stranded DNA). This paper provides proof of ...
متن کاملNucleobase-functionalized graphene nanoribbons for accurate high-speed DNA sequencing.
We propose a water-immersed nucleobase-functionalized suspended graphene nanoribbon as an intrinsically selective device for nucleotide detection. The proposed sensing method combines Watson-Crick selective base pairing with graphene's capacity for converting anisotropic lattice strain to changes in an electrical current at the nanoscale. Using detailed atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulat...
متن کاملSupporting Information DNA Translocation Through Graphene Nanopores
We have plotted and fitted the data both as R(d) and as G(d) = 1/R(d), which will have the effect of emphasizing the weight of data points at small and large diameters, respectively. We fitted a variety of fitting functions to these data, as indicated in Figure S1. Table S1 displays the resulting fitting parameters as well as the χ 2 value, the reduced sum of the squared residuals. From a compa...
