Number 3 Title: Negative Differential Resistance of DNA nucleotide Thymine for use in Molecular Devices
Author: Darta Huiyu & Kanchu Tamalk
Abstract: ... The soft-computing techniques provide us with tools that can be used to calculate the various parameters that cannot be measured easily. In this paper computational study of DNA base Thymine has been carried out using two probe set up. The metal-molecule-metal assembly was realized by inserting Thymine molecule between two gold terminals and analyzed for current-voltage characteristics. The current-voltage characteristics are obtained using Density Functional theory within Non-equilibrium Green’s function formalism (NEGF-DFT). Negative differential resistance is exhibited in the characteristics of Thymine. In two probe set-up without using gate, oscillating behavior of current through thymine is observed rendering its use to drive electronic circuits. It is also observed that the current-voltage characteristics of Thymine can be modulated by gating the two probe setup. The analysis shows that Thymine is suitable for use in two and three terminal Nanoelectronic devices. Keywords: computation, DNA base Thymine, negative differential resistance, resonant tunneling.
