Detecting the spin-polarization of edge states in graphene nanoribbons
Jens Brede, Nestor Merino-Díez, Alejandro Berdonces +9
Low dimensional carbon-based materials are interesting because they can show intrinsic -magnetism associated to p-electrons residing in specific open-shell configurations. Conse…
Substrate-Independent Growth of Atomically Precise Chiral Graphene Nanoribbons
Dimas G. de Oteyza, Aran Garcia-Lekue, Manuel Vilas-Varela +10
Contributing to the need of new graphene nanoribbon (GNR) structures that can be synthesized with atomic precision, we have designed a reactant that renders chiral (3,1) - GNRs aft…
Band Depopulation of Graphene Nanoribbons Induced by Chemical Gating with Amino Groups
Jingcheng Li, Pedro Brandimarte, Manuel Vilas-Varela +10
The electronic properties of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) can be precisely tuned by chemical doping. Here we demonstrate that amino (NH) functional groups attached at the edges…
Hierarchy in the halogen activation during surface-promoted Ullmann coupling
Néstor Merino-Díez, Alejandro Pérez Paz, Jingcheng Li +9
Within the collection of surface-supported reactions currently accessible for the production of extended molecular nanostructures under ultra-high vacuum, Ullmann coupling has been…
Symmetry, Shape and Energy Variations in Frontier Molecular Orbitals at Organic/Metal Interfaces: the Case of FTCNQ
Patrizia Borghetti, Ane Sarasola, Nestor Merino-Diez +6
Near Edge X-ray Absorption, Valence and Core-level Photoemission and Density Functional Theory calculations are used to study molecular levels of tetracyano-2,3,5,6-tetrafluoroquin…
Switching From Reactant to Substrate Engineering in the Selective Synthesis of Graphene Nanoribbons
Néstor Merino-Díez, Jorge Lobo-Checa, Pawel Nita +12
The challenge of synthesizing graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with atomic precision is currently being pursued along a one-way road, based on the synthesis of adequate molecular precur…
