摘要
We study the influence of a terahertz field on thermal properties of DNA molecules. A Peyrard-Bishop-Dauxois model with the inclusion of a solvent interaction term is considered. The terahertz field is included as a sinusoidal driven force in the equation of motion. We show how under certain field and system parameters, the melting transition and bubble formation are modified. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevE.87.022703
