Abstract This paper structured the Graphene Nanoribbon with different bandwidths and rim decorations and obtained the ideal strength and modulus of elasticity based on the calculation under the First Principle. It can be known that the mechanical properties of Graphene Nanoribbon are close to that of graphene, which have less changes with different bandwidth. However, the mechanical properties would be influenced by different decorations which may change the electronic connection state of edge carbon atoms. The results found in this paper can provide some reference for researchers to study the mechanical properties of graphene nanoribbons in the future.

AbstractWe perform self-consistent analysis of the Boltzmann transport equation for momentum and energy in the hypersound regime i.e., $$ql \gg 1$$ q l ≫ 1 ($$q$$ q is the acoustic wavenumber and l is the mean free path). We investigate the Landau damping of acoustic phonons ($$LDOAP$$ LDOAP ) in graphene nanoribbons, which leads to acoustoelectric current generation. Under a non-quantized field with drift velocity, we observed an acoustic phonon energy quantization that depends on the energy gap, the width, and the sub-index of the material. An effect similar to Cerenkov emission was observed, where the electron absorbed the confined acoustic phonon energy, causing the generation of acoustoelectric current in the graphene nanoribbon. A qualitative analysis of the dependence of the absorption coefficient and the acoustoelectric current on the phonon frequency is in agreement with experimental reports. We observed a shift in the peaks when the energy gap and the drift velocity were varied. Most importantly, a transparency window appears when the absorption coefficient is zero, making graphene nanoribbons a potential candidate for use as an acoustic wave filter with applications in tunable gate-controlled quantum information devices and phonon spectrometers.

—Density function theory (DFT) based simulation combined with non-equilibrium green function (NEGF) was used to theoretically investigate electrical properties of symmetrical and asymmetrical boron nitride (BN) passivated graphene nanoribbons. Using density function theory method, it is demonstrated that the band gap of armchair (A) graphene nanoribbon (GNR) can be widened with boron nitride passivation. five symmetrical and five asymmetrical structures were considered, for which we obtained band gaps from 0.45 eV to 2 eV for symmetrical structures and 0.3 eV to 1.5 eV for asymmetrical structures. For the same width of graphene nanoribbon, our results showed that asymmetrical structure has a smaller band gap and almost the same conductance in comparison with the symmetrical one. Finally, comparison between the asymmetrical structure and the hydrogenated armchair graphene (h-AGNR) nanoribbon showed that, hBN-AGNR exhibited a higher conductance compared to an h-AGNR for the same width of GNR.

Based on a solution of the Floquet Hamiltonian we have studied the time evolution of electronic states in graphene nanoribbons driven out of equilibrium by time-dependent electromagnetic fields in different regimes of intensity, polarization, and frequency. We show that the time-dependent band structure contains many unconventional features that are not captured by considering the Floquet eigenvalues alone. By analyzing the evolution in time of the state population we have identified regimes for the emergence of time-dependent edge states responsible for charge oscillations across the ribbon.
