Effects of Metal Ions on Conductivity and Structure of Single DNA Molecule in Different Environmental Conditions

<p>Abstract</p> <p>We design a novel nano-gap electrode to measure the current of DNA molecule, by which the current&#8211;voltage characteristics of individual native DNA, Ag-DNA and Ni-DNA molecules are obtained, respectively. The results show that the voltage gap of Ag- and...
