60. F) can be varied through the application of an external gate potential and therefore T(E) can be sampled over a range of energies. The probability distribution of the differences between the logarithm of the conductance in the presence of the nucleobases and in the absence of them shows distinct peak with different height and position which could be used to distinguish between the bases.
