Current-induced enhancement of DNA bubble creation

Current-induced heating of short double-stranded DNA chains is studied within a two-probe transport setup by using the Langevin approach. The electrons are modeled by a tight-binding Hamiltonian. The DNA atomic motion is described by the Peyrard–Bishop–Dauxois atomic potential, coupled with electron...
