Robust signatures in the current–voltage characteristics of DNA molecules oriented between two graphene nanoribbon electrodes

In this work, we numerically calculate the electric current through three kinds of DNA sequences (telomeric, λ -DNA and p53-DNA) described by different heuristic models. A bias voltage is applied between two zigzag edged graphene contacts attached to the DNA segments, while a gate terminal modulates...
