We show that semiconducting graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) of different width, edge, and end termination (synthesizable from molecular precursors with atomic precision) belong to …
Bottom-up graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) have recently been shown to host nontrivial topological phases. Here, we report the fabrication and characterization of deterministic …
Topological insulators are an emerging class of materials that host highly robust in-gap surface or interface states while maintaining an insulating bulk,. Most advances in this field …
Precise control over the size and shape of graphene nanostructures allows engineering spin- polarized edge and topological states, representing a novel source of non-conventional π …
Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs), low-dimensional platforms for carbon-based electronics, show the promising perspective to also incorporate spin polarization in their conjugated …
Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) have recently been shown by Cao, Zhao, and Louie [Cao, T.; Zhao, F.; Louie, SG Phys. Rev. Lett. 2017, 119, 076401] to possess distinct topological …
Finite graphene nanoribbon (GNR) heterostructures host intriguing topological in-gap states (Rizzo, DJ; et al. Nature 2018, 560, 204). These states may be localized either at the bulk …
Topologically protected edge and junction states, previously predicted, have recently been observed in armchair graphene nanoribbon (AGNR) heterojunctions. Here, via tight-binding …
Topological theory has been recently applied in graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) and predicts the existence of topological quantum states in junctions connecting GNRs of different …
