Summary:
We have demonstrated that molecular redox networks using DNA scaffold behave as a circuit consisting of Coulomb islands. The conductance of the network exhibits nonlinear current-voltage characteristics that can be described by the Coulomb blockade model. As a demonstration of the nonlinear network system, we have observed stochastic resonance without tuning for weak periodic input signals and thermal noise, which suggests a route to a neural network composed of molecular materials.
