DNA - Nanoelectronics: Realization of a Single Electron Tunneling Transistor and a Quantum Bit Element
Eshel Ben-Jacob, Ziv Hermon, Shay Caspi
Based on the understanding that chemical bonds can act as tunnel junctions in the Coulomb blockade regime, and on the technical ability to coat a DNA strand with metal, we suggest…
