内容简介：
Biomolecular electronics is a young and rapidly expanding field bridging the gap between the microelectronics of today and the biomimetic devices of tomorrow. The aim of this book is to connect a class of recently discovered, naturally occurring proteins (called rhodopsins) with the creation of a biocomputer, which is the ultimate goal of biomolecular electronics. Written in an expansive style that illuminates the complete history of rhodopsin research, this book will interest students and researchers in bioelectronics, biophysics, cell and molecular biology and biochemistry as well as computer experts with an eye to the 21st century.
