We investigate the aspects of the electron transport in the zigzag graphene nanoribbons (ZGNRs) using the non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) formalism. The latter is an esoteric tool in mesoscopic physics and using this tool the…
One notable manifestation of the peculiar edge-localized states in zigzag graphene nanoribbons (zGNRs) is the p-type (n-type) characteristics of nitrogen (boron) edge-doped GNRs, and such behavior was so far considered to be exclusive for…
