Edge-sensitive Semiconducting Behaviour in Low-defect Narrow Graphene Nanoribbons

Low-defect graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) derived from the unzipping of carbon nanotubes have exhibited large energy band gaps (transport gaps), despite having widths in the order of ∼100 nm. Here, we report on the unique semiconducting behaviour of very narrow, low-defect GNRs, with widths of less tha...
