The spin-selective transport through helical molecules has been a hot topic in condensed matter physics, because it develops a new research direction in spintronics, ie, chiro …
We derive a detailed analytical tight-binding (TB) model for a double helix emulating DNA with one type of nucleotide pair and a single oriented π orbital per base. The TB model …
A minimal model is exactly solved for electron spin transport on a helix. Electron transport is assumed to be supported by well oriented pz type orbitals on base molecules forming a …
This review is devoted to tight-binding (TB) modeling of nucleic acid sequences like DNA and RNA. It addresses how various types of order (periodic, quasiperiodic, fractal) or …

We report spin-selective tunneling of electrons along double-stranded DNA sandwiched between nonmagnetic leads. On the basis of a model Hamiltonian which contains spin-orbit …
Background Epigenetic mechanisms are informational cellular processes instructing normal and diseased phenotypes. They are associated with DNA but without altering the DNA …

Chiral-induced spin selectivity is a phenomenon in which electron spins are polarized as they are transported through chiral molecules, and the spin polarization depends on the …
We report on spin transport along double-helical molecular systems by considering various contact configurations and asymmetries between the two helical strands in the regime of …
