The hybrid graphene - hexagonal boron nitride (G-hBN) systems offer new routes in the design of nanoscale electronic devices. Using {\it ab initio} density functional theory calculations we investigate the dynamics of zig-zag nanoribbons a…

Graphene nanoribbons with sub-nanometer widths are extremely interesting for nanoscale electronics and devices as they combine the unusual transport properties of graphene with the opening of a band gap due to quantum confinement in the…

We analyze the thermal fluctuations of a narrow graphene nanoribbon. Using a continuum, membrane-like model we study the height-height correlation functions and the destabilization modes corresponding to two different boundaries conditions:…

It is now possible to produce graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with atomically defined widths. GNRs offer many opportunities for electronic devices and composites, if it is possible to establish the link between edge structure and…

Zigzag edges of the honeycomb structure of graphene exhibit magnetic polarization making them attractive as building blocks for spintronic devices. Here, we show that devices with zigzag edged triangular antidots perform essential…

The deformation and disintegration of a graphene nanoribbon under external electrostatic fields are investigated by first principle quantum mechanical calculations to establish its stability range. The zigzag edges terminated by various…

The conductance of metallic graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with single defects and weak disorder at their edges is investigated in a tight-binding model. We find that a single edge defect will induce quasi-localized states and consequently…

A comprehensive first-principles theoretical study of the electronic properties and half-metallic nature of finite rectangular graphene nanoribbons is presented. We identify the bisanthrene isomer of the C28H14 molecule to be the smallest…

We extensively characterize the electronic structure of ultra-narrow graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with armchair edges and zig-zag termini that have 5 carbon atoms across their width (5-AGNRs), as synthesised on Au(111). Scanning tunnelling…

We have performed density functional calculations as well as employed a tight-binding theory, to study the effect of passivation of zigzag graphene nanoribbons (ZGNR) by Hydrogen. We show that each edge C atom bonded with 2 H atoms open up…

Graphene nanoribbons (GNR) in mutually perpendicular electric and magnetic fields are shown to exhibit dramatic changes in their band structure and electron transport properties. A strong electric field across the ribbon induces multiple…

Edge magnetism in zigzag transition metal dichalcogenide nanoribbons is studied using a three-band tight-binding model with local electron-electron interactions. Both mean field theory and the unbiased, numerically exact determinant quantum…

Based on first-principles calculations we predict that periodically repeated junctions of armchair graphene nanoribbons of different widths form superlattice structures. In these superlattice heterostructures the width and the energy gap…

Graphene on a substrate will suffer an inversion-symmetry-breaking (ISB) lattice potential. Taking electron-electron interaction into account, we study in this paper the possibility of half-metallicity and noncollinear (NC) magnetic phase…

Quasi one-dimensional nanoribbons are excellent candidates for nanoelectronics, therefore here we investigate by means of density functional theory the structure and electronic properties of a new kind of 1D ribbons, namely: centered…

It is argued that the subtle crossover from decoherence-dominated classical magnetism to fluctuation-dominated quantum magnetism is experimentally accessible in graphene nanoribbons. We show that the width of a nanoribbon determines whether…

We study the effects of uniaxial strains on the transport properties of the graphene nanoribbons(GNRs) connected with two metallic leads in heterojunctions, using the transfer matrix method. Two typical GNRs with zigzag and armchair…

Edge structure of graphene has a significant influence on its electronic properties. However, control over the edge structure of graphene domains on insulating substrates is still challenging. Here we demonstrate edge control of graphene…
