The electronic properties of graphene are influenced by both geometric confinement and strain. We study the electronic structure of in-plane bent graphene nanoribbons, systems where confinement and strain are combined. To understand its…
An odd number of zigzag edges in armchair graphene nanoribbons and their mechanical properties (e.g., Young's modulus, Poisson ratio and shear modulus) have potential interest for bandgap engineering in graphene based optoelectronic…
We investigate the role of various structural nonidealities on the performance of armchair-edge graphene nanoribbon field effect transistors (GNRFETs). Our results show that edge roughness dilutes the chirality dependence often predicted by…
Graphene nanoribbon interconnects are fabricated, and the extracted resistivity is compared to that of Cu. It is found that the average resistivity at a given line-width (18nm<W<52nm) is about 3X that of a Cu wire, whereas the best GNR has…
The electronic structure of chair-type biphenylene ribbons is studied within the framework of the Hubbard Hamiltonian in the approximation of static fluctuations. An expression is obtained for the Fourier transform of the Green's functions,…
Quantum-dot states in graphene nanoribbons (GNR) were calculated using density-functional theory, considering the effect of the electric field of gate electrodes. The field is parallel to the GNR plane and was generated by an inhomogeneous…
We report on (magneto)-transport experiments in chemically derived narrow graphene nanoribbons under high magnetic fields (up to 60 Tesla). Evidences of field-dependent electronic confinement features are given, and allow estimating the…
In general, there are two major factors affecting bandgaps in nanostructures: (i) the enhanced electron-electron interactions due to confinement and (ii) the modified self-energy of electrons due to the dielectric screening. While recent…
The conductance of graphene nanoribbons and nanoconstrictions under the effect of a scanning gate microscopy tip is systematically studied. Using a scattering approach for noninvasive probes, the first- and second-order conductance…

We report combined first-principle and tight-binding (TB) calculations to simulate the effects of chemical edge modifications on structural and electronic properties. The C-C bond lengths and bond angles near the GNR edge have considerable…
Non-equilibrium molecular dynamics is used to investigate the heat current due to the atomic lattice vibrations in graphene nanoribbons and nanorings under a thermal gradient. We consider a wide range of temperature, nanoribbon widths up to…
We report on the fabrication and electrical characterization of both single layer graphene micron-sized devices and nanoribbons on a hexagonal boron nitride substrate. We show that the micron-sized devices have significantly higher mobility…
A spin field effect transistor (FET) is proposed by utilizing a graphene nanoribbon as the channel. Similar to the conventional spin FETs, the device involves ferromagnetic metals as a source and drain; they, in turn, are connected to the…
We study the electron transport through a graphene nanoribbon-superconductor junction. Both zigzag and armchair edge graphene nanoribbons are considered, and the effects of the magnetic field and disorder on the transport property are…
Thermoelectric materials open a way to harness dissipated energy and make electronic devices less energy-demanding. Heat-to-electricity conversion requires materials with a strongly suppressed thermal conductivity but still high electronic…
Using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics method(NEMD), we have found that the thermal conductivity of multilayer graphene nanoribbons monotonously decreases with the increase of the number of layers, such behavior can be attributed to the…
We present Raman spectroscopy measurements of non-etched graphene nanoribbons, with widths ranging from 15 to 160 nm, where the D-line intensity is strongly dependent on the polarization direction of the incident light. The extracted edge…
Explicit expressions of the band spectrum near the neutrality point for armchair and zigzag graphene ribbons and carbon nanotubes were derived based on a tight-binding macromolecule model of graphene. The obtained dispersion relations are…
We investigate from first principles the electronic and optical properties of edge-modulated armchair graphene nanoribbons, including both quasi-particle corrections and excitonic effects. Exploiting the oscillating behavior of the ribbon…
