Some Effective Tight-Binding Models for Electrons in DNA Conduction: A Review

Table 2

Basic parameters for DNA molecules. The subscripts AT and GC for 𝑘 and 𝛼 denote the ones of the poly(dA)-poly(dT) and poly(dG)-poly(dC) DNA polymers, respectively. The other parameters are 𝐸₀=0.1eV, 𝑉₀=0.1eV, 𝑎=3.4 Å, 𝑅₀=10Å, and 𝜃₀=36^∘.

Parameter	Value
𝑘AT	0.778917 eV Å^-1
𝛼AT	0.053835 Å^-1
𝑘GC	−0.090325 eV Å^-1
𝛼GC	0.383333 Å^-1
