Abstract
The concept of using DNA molecules for designing nano-scale electronic systems has attracted researcher’s
attention due to the unique properties of DNA, such as self-assembly and self-recognition. Thus, increased
number of studies, theoretically and experimentally, have been carried out to study the possibility of adopting
DNA molecules in designing nanoscale thermoelectric devices. In this work, a general expression of the
electron transmission probability that describes the electron transfer through one strand DNA chain has been
derived using the steady-state-formalism by assuming one strand of DNA molecules as line model
Keywords
One Strand DNA, Transmission, Seebeck Coefficient, Thermoelectric Power.
