摘要
纳米二氧化钛(TiO_(2))由于具有卓越的生物相容性和优异的物理性能,因此有望在生物医学领域中发挥重要的作用,且应用前景广阔.利用第一性原理计算,深入地研究了金红石型TiO_(2)纳米层(110)表面与脱氧核糖核酸(DNA)不同碱基在界面之间的吸附性能及相互作用的原子机制.通过分析结合能和功函数的计算结果发现,TiO_(2)纳米层(110)表面对DNA碱基的吸附强度显著增强,比典型二维纳米材料的吸附强度大两倍以上.进而,通过研究电子能带结构和态密度计算结果,阐明了二者在界面之间的吸附机制,其起源于吸附体系显著降低的能级和C、N和/或O的2p轨道与费米能级附近Ti原子的3d轨道的强烈杂化.纳米TiO_(2)为DNA传感器和测序仪的设计提供了一种极具潜力的候选材料.
The remarkable biocompatibility and supreme physical properties of nanostructured TiO_(2)have promised itself a strong future for biomedical applications.The present paper reports a theoretical study on the adsorption and underlying atomic mechanisms of DNA nucleobases on rutile TiO_(2)(110)nanolayer using first-principles calculations.The calculations of the binding energy and work function demonstrate that the TiO_(2)nanolayer has enhanced adsorption strength to the DNA nucleobases,being more than two times larger than that of typical two-dimensional nanomaterials,such as graphene and its derivatives.Further electronic band structure and density of state calculations elucidate the adsorption mechanisms,which originate from dramatically reduced energy levels and strong hybridization of the 2p orbital of C,N and/or O with 3d orbital of Ti atoms near the Fermi level.The study directs a promising material at applications in DNA sensors and sequencers.
