Observation of coherent delocalized phonon-like modes in DNA under physiological conditions
Terahertz-frequency vibrational modes are thought to play a key role for DNA biological functions, yet observation of these fluctuations in solution has proven difficult so far. Here, the authors use femtosecond optical Kerr-effect spectroscopy to demonstrate their existence in physiologically relev...
