Interfacial Coupling and Sparse Intercalation of 7-Atom-Wide Armchair Graphene Nanoribbons by N-Heterocyclic Carbene Monolayers

Dominik Lüthi, Lin Yang, Xiuling Yu +5

Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) synthesized on metal substrates experience electronic coupling and screening from the underlying surface, which, although often weak, can modify their o…
