Abstract: | We study the interaction between holes and molecular vibrations on dry DNA by using the extended Firsov's model. The ground state energy, calculated by using two Hilbert spaces, Fock state space and coherent state space, is confirmed. The polaron binding energy, defined with the ground state energy, is 0.014eV, much less than the thermal energy 0.026eV at room temperature 300K, which means that polarons are difficult to form self-trapping at room temperature and Anderson localization will prevent a metallic state on dry DNA. The results are consistent with the available experiments. |
