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…

Do Topological Charge Solitons Participate in DNA Activity?
Ziv Hermon, Shay Caspi, Eshel Ben-Jacob
We present a novel electromagnetic model of DNA molecules, in which the P-bonds act as tunnel junctions and the H-bonds as capacitors. Excess charge in the model gives rise to two…
