We report on nano-infrared (IR) imaging studies of confined plasmon modes inside patterned graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) fabricated with high-quality chemical-vapor-deposited (CVD) graphene on Al2O3 substrates. The confined geometry of these…

Nanometer-scale graphene objects are attracting much research interest because of newly emerging properties originating from quantum confinement effects. We present Raman spectroscopy studies of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) which are known…

Recent works have shown how the electrical properties of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) show a size-dependence in terms of resistivity, charge neutrality point (CNP) and band structure once their widths drop below approximately 50 nm. It has…

Doping of semiconductor is necessary for various device applications. Exploiting chemistry at its reactive edges was shown to be an effective way to dope an atomically thin graphene nanoribbon (GNR) for realizing new devices in recent…

Gaussian deformation in graphene structures exhibits an interesting effect in which flower-shaped confinement states are observed in the deformed region [Carrillo-Bastos et al., Phys. Rev. B 90 041411 (2014)]. To exploit such a deformation…

We investigated the atomic structures, Raman spectroscopic and electrical transport properties of individual graphene nanoribbons (GNRs, widths ~10-30 nm) derived from sonochemical unzipping of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs).…

We analyze numerically the thermal conductivity of carbon nanoribbons with ideal and rough edges. We demonstrate that edge disorder can lead to a suppression of thermal conductivity by several orders of magnitude. This effect is associated…

We theoretically investigate the electron transport in armchair and zigzag graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) chemically functionalized with p-polyphenyl and polyacene groups of increasing length. Our nearest-neighbor tight-binding calculations…

A few-layer black phosphorene has recently gained significant interest in the scientific community. In this paper, we consider several polymorphs of phosphorene nanoribbons (PNRs) and employ deformation potential theory within the effective…

We introduce a technique to calculate thermal conductivity in disordered nanostructures: a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) solution of the elastic wave equation combined with the Green-Kubo formula. The technique captures phonon wave…

We simulate electron transport through graphene nanoribbons of experimentally realizable size (length L up to 2 micrometer, width W approximately 40 nm) in the presence of scattering at rough edges. Our numerical approach is based on a…

The effects of edge irregularity and mixed edge shapes on the characteristics of graphene nanoribbon transistors are examined by self-consistent atomistic simulations based on the non-equilibrium Green's function formalism. The minimal…

On-surface synthesis has recently emerged as an effective route towards the atomically precise fabrication of graphene nanoribbons of controlled topologies and widths. However, whether and to which degree structural disorder occurs in the…

We combine density-functional theory and the nonequilibrium Green's function method to study the thermal conductance of graphene nanoribbons with armchair and zigzag edges. Zigzag ribbons have higher thermal conductance than armchair…

Density functional study of strain effects on the electronic band structure and transport prop- erties of the graphene nanoribbons (GNR) is presented. We apply a uniaxial strain in the x (nearest-neighbor) and y (second nearest-neighbor)…

We present symmetry properties of the lattice vibrations of graphene nanoribbons with pure armchair (AGNR) and zigzag edges (ZGNR). In non-symmorphic nanoribbons the phonon modes at the edge of the Brillouin zone are twofold degenerate,…

The transmission properties of armchair graphene nanoribbon junctions between graphene electrodes are investigated by means of first-principles quantum transport calculations. First the dependence of the transmission function on the size of…

Electronic transport with a line (or a few lines) of Anderson type disorder in a zigzag graphene nanoribbon is investigated in presence of Rashba spin-orbit interaction. Such line disorders give rise to peculiar behavior in both charge as…

We study the transport properties of graphene nanoribbons of standardized 30 nm width and varying lengths. We find that the extent of the gap observed in transport as a function of Fermi energy in these ribbons (the "transport gap") does…
