▎ 摘　　要

Through this research, functionalized graphene nanopores are used to verify how effective such an apparatus for DNA sequencing is. The circular symmetric pores are functionalized with hydrogen and a hydroxyl group bonded with carbon atoms of the pore rim. Plus, two adenine bases are also put at the rim perimeter to verify whether such a combination would lead to base detection. A homopolymer of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) is pulled through a nanopore using steered molecular dynamics (SMD) simulation. Pulling force profile, moving fashion of ssDNA in irreversible DNA pulling as well as the base orientation during translocation relative to the graphene plane, called beta angle, are assessed. Based on the studied parameters, SMD force, and base orientation, the hydrogenated and hydroxylated pores do not show a clear distinction between bases, while the adenine-functionalized pore can distinguish between adenine and cytosine. Therefore, there may be some hope for achieving single-base sequencing, while further research is needed.
