Abstract

DNA sequencing gives us an ideal opportunity to promote the well-being by helping personal or precision medicine. Here, we inspected the interaction of cytosine (C), thymine (T), adenine (A), and guanine (G) with an AlN nanosheet (AlNN) by using DFT method in order to find a DNA sequencer. The released energy after the adsorption of nucleobases on the AlNN displays the order of G (1.02 eV) > C (0.94) ≈ T (0.92) > A (0.63), which differs from the BN nanosheet order because of the different adsorption mechanisms. The energy decomposition analysis illustrated that through transition from the G to A base, the contribution of covalent bond in the adsorption nature decreased and the electrostatic/covalent ratio increased. The nucleobase interaction may significantly increase the electrical conductivity of the AlNN, so the electronic sensing response of AlNN toward G, T, C, or A is 1285, 638, 567, or 240. Also, we predicted short recovery times for desorption of nucleobases. Thus, the AlNN might be applied to selectively sense the difference among G, T, C, and A, which is conducive to determining the nucleobase sequence in DNA. The water solvent somewhat weakens the nucleobase adsorption process and slightly reduces the sensing responses.
