Efficient spin-filter and negative differential resistance behaviors in FeN{sub 4} embedded graphene nanoribbon device

Journal Article Liu, N., E-mail: liuna0720@126.com ; Liu, J. B. ; Yao, K. L. ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

In this paper, we propose a new device of spintronics by embedding two FeN{sub 4} molecules into armchair graphene nanoribbon and sandwiching them between N-doped graphene nanoribbon electrodes. Our first-principle quantum transport calculations show that the device is a perfect spin filter with high spin-polarizations both in parallel configuration (PC) and antiparallel configuration (APC). Moreover, negative differential resistance phenomena are obtained for the spin-down current in PC, and the spin-up and spin-down currents in APC. These transport properties are explained by the bias-dependent evolution of molecular orbitals and the transmission spectra.

Synergistic Enhancement of Electrocatalytic CO₂ Reduction with Gold Nanoparticles Embedded in Functional Graphene Nanoribbon Composite Electrodes

Journal Article Rogers, Cameron ; Perkins, Wade S. ; Veber, Gregory ; ... - Journal of the American Chemical Society

Regulating the complex environment accounting for the stability, selectivity, and activity of catalytic metal nanoparticle interfaces represents a challenge to heterogeneous catalyst design. Here in this paper, we demonstrate the intrinsic performance enhancement of a composite material composed of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) embedded in a bottom-up synthesized graphene nanoribbon (GNR) matrix for the electrocatalytic reduction of CO₂. Electrochemical studies reveal that the structural and electronic properties of the GNR composite matrix increase the AuNP electrochemically active surface area (ECSA), lower the requisite CO₂ reduction overpotential by hundreds of millivolts (catalytic onset > -0.2 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE)), increasemore »« less

Embedded boron nitride domains in graphene nanoribbons for transport gap engineering

Journal Article Lopez-Bezanilla, Alejandro ; Roche, Stephan - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

In this study, we numerically investigate the impact of boron nitride (BN) domains on the transport properties of graphene nanoribbons with lengths ranging from a few to several hundreds of nanometers and lateral size up to 4 nm. By varying the size and morphology of the BN islands embedded in the graphene matrix, a wide transport tunability is obtained from perfect insulating interfaces to asymmetric electron-hole transmission profiles, providing the possibility to engineer mobility gaps to improve device performances. Even in the low-density limit of embedded BN islands, transport properties are found to be highly dependent on both the BN-domainmore »« less

Engineering Edge States of Graphene Nanoribbons for Narrow-Band Photoluminescence

Journal Article Ma, Chuanxu ; Xiao, Zhongcan ; Puretzky, Alexander A. ; ... - ACS Nano

Solid-state narrow-band light emitters are on-demand for quantum optoelectronics. Current approaches based on defect engineering in low-dimensional materials usually introduce a broad range of emission centers. Here, we report narrow-band light emission from covalent heterostructures fused to the edges of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) by controllable on-surface reactions from molecular precursors. Two types of heterojunction (HJ) states are realized by sequentially synthesizing GNRs and graphene nanodots (GNDs) and then coupling them together. HJs between armchair GNDs and armchair edges of the GNR are coherent and give rise to narrow-band photoluminescence. In contrast, HJs between the armchair GNDs and the zigzag endsmore »« less

Electron spin magnetism of zigzag graphene nanoribbon edge states

Journal Article Xu, Kun ; Ye, Peide D. - Applied Physics Letters

The electron spin states of zigzag graphene nanoribbon (ZGNR) edge play a pivotal role in the applications of graphene nanoribbons. However, the exact arrangements of the electron spins remain unclear to date. In this report, the electronic spin states of the ZGNR edge have been elucidated through a combination of quantum chemical investigation and previous electron spin resonance experiment observations. An alternating α and β spin configuration of the unpaired electrons along the ZGNR edge is established in ambient condition without any external magnetic field, and the origin of the spin magnetism of the ZGNR edge is revealed. It pavesmore »« less
