英文摘要Using the maximum-entropy method, we calculate the end-to-end distance distribution of the force-stretched chain from the moments of the distribution, which can be obtained from the extension-force curves measured in single-molecule experiments. If one knows the force expansion of the extension through the (n-1)th power of a force, that is enough to calculate the n moments of the distribution. We examine the method with three force-stretched chain models: the Gaussian chain, free-joined chain, and self-avoiding chain on a two-dimensional lattice. The method reconstructs all distributions precisely. We also apply the method to force-stretched complex chain molecules: the hairpin and secondary structure conformations. We find that the distributions of homogeneous chains of the two conformational classes are quite different: there are two independent peaks in the hairpin distribution, while only one peak is observed in the distribution of secondary structure conformations. Our discussion shows that the end-to-end distance distribution, instead of extension-force curves, can reveal more important physical information. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.
