Theoretical Design of Nanomaterials and Nanodevices: Nanolensing, Supermagnetoresistance, and Ultrafast DNA Sequencing

Abstract

We briefly discuss theoretical studies of the optical properties of self-assembled nanolenses, spintronics of carbon-based materials, and molecular electronics for fast DNA sequencing. We address the super-resolution phenomena of nanolenses, the supermagnetoresistance phenomena of graphene nanoribbon spin valves, and ultrafast DNA sequencing based on the 2-dimensional conductance of a graphene nanoribbon on a nanochatmel.
