We have been studying the microwave absorption characteristics of various forms of DNA. Our observations have demonstrated that long-chain DNA in saline buffer does not absorb microwaves significantly more than its solvent, but that specific short-length molecules can absorb microwaves resonantly. The most satisfactory explanation of these microwave absorption phenomena invokes the excitation of internal acoustic modes of the molecule. There is good agreement between our experimental observations and a lattice-dynamical/normal-mode analysis of the vibrational motion of the double helical DNA.
