Current Enhancement in Solid-State Nanopores Depends on Three-Dimensional DNA Structure

The translocation of double-stranded DNA through a solid-state nanopore may either decrease or increase the ionic current depending on the ionic concentration of the surrounding solution. Below a certain crossover ionic concentration, the current change inverts from a current blockade to current enhancement. In this paper, we show that the crossover concentration for bundled DNA nanostructures composed of multiple connected DNA double-helices is...
