Armchair GNRs can be either metallic or semiconducting, depending on their width, while zigzag GNRs exhibit localized edge states and magnetic properties. Nanoribbons can display metallic, ...

Scientists from Utrecht University and the University of Twente made one-atom-thick ultrathin nanoribbons consisting of ...

Unlike their carbon analogue graphene, phosphorene nanoribbons possess a tunable electronic structure, making them ideal for energy-efficient transistors. This study shows that, remarkably, PNRs ...
