Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs), quasi-one-dimensional strips of graphene, exhibit a nonzero bandgap due to quantum confinement and edge effects. In the past decade, different types of GNRs with atomically precise structures...

In this letter, we investigate the transport properties of one-dimensional semiconducting Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with parabolic band structure near the Dirac point. The analytical model of effective mobility is developed by using the conductance approach, which differs from the conventional method of extracting the effective mobility using the well-known Matthiessen rule. Graphene nanoribbons conductance model developed was applied in the Drude model to obtain the effective mobility, which then gives nearly close comparison with the experimental data.

AbstractThe ability to define an off state in logic electronics is the key ingredient that is impossible to fulfill using a conventional pristine graphene layer, due to the absence of an electronic bandgap. For years, this property has been the missing element for incorporating graphene into next-generation field effect transistors. In this work, we grow high-quality armchair graphene nanoribbons on the sidewalls of 6H-SiC mesa structures. Angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) and scanning tunneling spectroscopy measurements reveal the development of a width-dependent semiconducting gap driven by quantum confinement effects. Furthermore, ARPES demonstrates an ideal one-dimensional electronic behavior that is realized in a graphene-based environment, consisting of well-resolved subbands, dispersing and non-dispersing along and across the ribbons respectively. Our experimental findings, coupled with theoretical tight-binding calculations, set the grounds for a deeper exploration of quantum confinement phenomena and may open intriguing avenues for new low-power electronics.

Ballistic thermal transport properties in graphene nanoribbon modulated with strain are investigated by non-equilibrium Green’s function approach. The results show that the strain can suppress the phonon transport of flexural phonon mode (FPM) and enhance the phonon transport of in-plane mode (IPM) in low-frequency region, leading to the reduction in the thermal conductance of FPM and the enhancement in the thermal conductance of IPM. The total thermal conductance is decreased by strain as the reduction in the thermal conductance of FPM overcomes the enhancement in the thermal conductance of IPM.

Atomically precise chevron graphene nanoribbons can form bulk π–π stacked aggregates as well as few-μm-long one-dimensional structures on surfaces that could be used for electronic device fabrication.
