We investigate a novel method of fabricating a network of graphene nanoribbon structures. The process is a sharp departure from conventional nanolithographic techniques in both method and amount of time required. Epitaxial ...

It is generally believed that the Si technology is going to hit a road block soon. Amongst all the potential candidates, graphene shows the most promise as replacement material for the aging Si technology. This has caused ...

Graphene, a single sheet of carbon atoms sp2-bonded in a honeycomb lattice, is a possible all-carbon successor to silicon electronics. Ballistic conduction at room temperature and a linear dispersion relation that causes ...

Ultrathin graphite films, with thickness from 1-30 atomic layers, are grown on the Si-terminated and C-terminated faces of 6H-SiC and 4H-SiC via thermal desorption of silicon in an ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) chamber or in a ...

In this thesis, we show that planar graphene ribbons have properties similar to those of nanotubes. Both exhibit semiconducting or metallic properties depending on crystal orientation. The band gap varies approximately as ...

Graphene, a honeycomb lattice of sp2-bonded carbon atoms, has received considerable attention in the scientific community due to its unique electronic properties. Distinct symmetries of the graphene wave functions lead ...

Graphene is a single sheet of graphite. While bulk graphite is semimetal, graphene is a zero bandgap semiconductor. Band structure calculations show graphene has a linear energy dispersion relation in the low energy region ...
