Microwave heating as a universal method to transform confined molecules into armchair graphene nanoribbons
Haoyuan Zhang, Yingzhi Chen, Kunpeng Tang +12
Armchair graphene nanoribbons (AGNRs) with sub-nanometer width are potential materials for fabrication of novel nanodevices thanks to their moderate direct band gaps. AGNRs are usu…
Well-defined sub-nanometer graphene ribbons synthesized inside carbon nanotubes
Hans Kuzmany, Lei Shi, Miles Martinati +9
Graphene nanoribbons with sub-nanometer widths are extremely interesting for nanoscale electronics and devices as they combine the unusual transport properties of graphene with the…
Templated direct growth of ultra-thin double-walled carbon nanotubes
Lei Shi, Jinquan Wei, Kazuhiro Yanagi +5
Double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) combined the advantages of multi-walled (MW-) and single-walled (SW-) CNTs can be obtained by transforming the precursors (e.g. fullerene, f…
Extraction of Linear Carbon Chains Unravels the Role of the Carbon Nanotube Host
Lei Shi, Kazuhiro Yanagi, Kecheng Cao +3
Linear carbon chains (LCCs) have been shown to grow inside double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) but isolating them from this hosting material represents one of the most challeng…
