Large scale graphene electronics desires lithographic patterning of narrow graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) for device integration. However, conventional lithography can only reliably pattern ~20nm wide GNR arrays limited by lithography…

Aligned graphene nanoribbon (GNR) arrays were made by unzipping of aligned single-walled and few-walled carbon nanotube (CNT) arrays. Nanotube unzipping was achieved by a polymer-protected Ar plasma etching method, and the resulting…

We use an atomic force microscope (AFM) to manipulate graphene films on a nanoscopic length scale. By means of local anodic oxidation with an AFM we are able to structure isolating trenches into single-layer and few-layer graphene flakes,…

The properties of graphene depend sensitively on doping with respect to the charge-neutrality point (CNP). Tuning the CNP usually requires electrical gating or chemical doping. Here, we describe a technique to reversibly control the CNP in…

Ordered graphene nanodisk arrays have been successfully fabricated by combining nanosphere lithography (NSL) and reactive ion etching (RIE) processes. The dimension of graphene nanodisks can be effectively tuned by varying the size of…

One of the ways to use graphene in field effect transistors is to introduce a band gap by quantum confinement effect [1]. That is why narrow graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with width less than 50nm are considered to be essential components in…
