[Dynamics of charge carrier transfer in a DNA molecule].
An equivalent electric circuit has been developed which describes the charge transfer in DNA molecule. A computer simulation of the charge carrier transfer dynamics in the molecule has been performed based on this circuit. It was found that the switching time of a molecular junction lies in the femtosecond range and depends on the frequency of the input electric signal. An increase in the frequency of the input signal in the range from 1 GHz to 4 THz and a reduction of temperature lead to a decrease in the current passing through the DNA molecule. It has been shown that the sequence of the DNA base pairs defines the rate of localization and delocalization of holes and controls the signal propagation rate in the DNA molecule.
