Outline of Final Research Achievements

Wafer-scale, high-yield synthesis of suspended graphene nanoribbon arrays using a bottom-up approach is demonstrated and a promising growth model of suspended graphene nanoribbons is also established through a comprehensive study that combined experiments, molecular dynamics simulations and theoretical calculations with a phase-diagram analysis. Since the suspended graphene nanoribbon includes unique electrical and mechanical structures, our results can contribute to developing a novel application of graphene nanoribbon.
