Investigation of properties of surface modes at the boundary of the DNA origami lattice

In this study, the models for the DNA origami lattice will be investigated. Our aim is to theoretically explore the ways of constructing DNA origami. To achieve this goal the DNA origami structure, consisting of nanowires embedded in a host material, will be treated from the perspective of nanowire metamaterial. Surface plasmon polaritons propagating at the interface of air and DNA metamaterial are analyzed. The dispersion relation is attained using the transfer matrix technique and employing continuity conditions of electric fields and their derivatives at the boundary separating two regions. We have concluded that with numerous nanowires into the metamaterial unit, cell frequencies of surface plasmon polaritons are altered to higher frequencies. In this study, we have studied the effect of modifications of the metamaterial, allowing for the shift of the dispersion maps toward higher frequencies. It is possible to obtain the propagation of spoof plasmons mimicking the behavior of surface waves at lower frequencies. All the properties and parameters of the inorganic metamaterials are applicable to study the phenomenon of the organic substances.
