Pattern template for graphene nanoribbons: Depending on the direction of the ribbon axis, graphene nanoribbons have an armchair edge (orange) or a zigzag edge (blue). (Image: Empa) Graphene ...

Working with carbon-based materials offers a decisive advantage: “While individual atoms only have one spin, nanographenes make it possible to create several linked spins,” says Bae. Making several ...

Graphene nanoribbons, which are narrow strips of nanoscale honeycomb carbon structures, exhibit remarkable magnetic properties due to the behavior of unpaired electrons in the atoms' π-orbitals.

Recent findings reveal phosphorene nanoribbons exhibit intrinsic magnetic and semiconducting properties, paving the way for ...

Germanene nanoribbons keep topological edge states above 2 nm but form new quantum end states below this width, revealing a ...

Graphene has potentially useful electronic properties but it is difficult to produce and process on large scales. Working with chemically modified forms of graphene — such as graphene oxide ...
