Formation of electrically conducting DNA-assembled gold nanoparticle monolayers

Abstract

The formation of DNA-assembled gold nanoparticle monolayers on a silicon substrate is reported. The electrical properties, obtained from temperature dependent dc and impedance measurements, reflect thermally activated hopping transport. The activation energy increases with the inter-particle spacing.
