Fullerenes as adhesive layers for mechanical peeling of metallic, molecular and polymer thin films
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2014, 5, 394–401, doi:10.3762/bjnano.5.46
- , and other coupling reactions [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28]. This approach has been used to form one-dimensional polymers [19] and graphene nanoribbons [20] with lengths up to ≈40 nm, small domains of multiply-connected molecules [18][20][21][25][28] and more extended two-dimensional
- properties, cannot be easily investigated while the structures remain on a metallic substrate (the common choice for catalysing the relevant coupling reaction). For the case of graphene nanoribbons direct mechanical transfer has been demonstrated [20] but the process remains relatively uncontrolled. The
Magnetic anisotropy of graphene quantum dots decorated with a ruthenium adatom
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2013, 4, 441–445, doi:10.3762/bjnano.4.51
- finding is compatible with previous work on the absorption of transition-metal atoms on graphene nanoribbons [28]. We now turn to the question of the detailed magnetic structure of the graphene flake with the Ru adatom. Considering first the in-plane versus out-of-plane anisotropy (EIO) we find that (i
Electronic and transport properties of kinked graphene
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2013, 4, 103–110, doi:10.3762/bjnano.4.12
- period and height on the order of 10 nm [12]. Recently, Hicks et al. [13] demonstrated how arrays of 1D large band gap, semiconducting graphene nanoribbons corresponding to a width of ≈1.4 nm can be formed in graphene on a step-patterned SiC substrate. The substrate interactions can clamp a graphene
- transport across the kink lines. We finally consider pseudo-ribbon-based heterostructures and propose that such structures present a novel approach for band gap engineering in nanostructured graphene.

- nanoribbons; graphene nanostructuring; Introduction Nanostructures based on graphene have an enormous potential for applications. Especially in future electronic devices compatible with and extending silicon technology, due to the outstanding electronic transport properties of graphene [1]. However, it is
Highly ordered ultralong magnetic nanowires wrapped in stacked graphene layers
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2012, 3, 846–851, doi:10.3762/bjnano.3.95
- developed in this work (e.g., the amount of carbon incorporated in the nickel phase, the post-annealing temperature, the metal used as catalyst, the dimensions of the nanograting structures, etc.) this strategy can be adopted for the growth of graphene nanoribbons a few layers thick and of macroscopic
Graphite, graphene on SiC, and graphene nanoribbons: Calculated images with a numerical FM-AFM

Technical details of the numerical AFM (n-AFM) n-AFM in frequency-modulation mode The n-AFM simulates the behavior of a frequency-modulation AFM with parameters compatible with an

Graphene nanoribbon edges In the recent literature in the graphene community, there is a vivid interest in graphene nanoribbons (GNR), because one may tune their electronic structure through
