In this article, we reported a novel experiment results on Ag-doped DNA conductor in transverse direction. I-V characteristics were measured and the relative conductances calculated for different silver ions concentrations. With increase of concentration ions, conductive ability risen rapidly, conductance enhanced about three magnitudes reached stable value when Ag(+) was up to 0.005 mM. addition, Raman spectra carried out analyse confirm conduction mechanism.
