Efficient synthesis of graphene nanoribbons sonochemically cut from graphene sheets (2010, background): “To date, several methods have been developed for the synthesis of GNRs, such as lithographical patterning of graphene [3, 7], bottom-up organic synthesis [2], sonochemical cutting of exfoliated expandable graphite [1], chemical vapor deposition [8, 9], oxygen plasma etching of graphene using Address”
Aligned graphene nanoribbons and crossbars from unzipped carbon nanotubes (2010, methodology): “The averaged ID/IG ratio of the sub10 nm GNRs obtained here was higher than for wider GNRs made by unzipping MWNTs by the same approach due to the much narrower width (2–8 nm) and proportionally higher defect density at the edges [16].”
Production, properties and potential of graphene (2010, background): “Indeed, the plasma etching of nanotubes that had been partially embedded in a polymer film [121] or alternatively the solution-based oxidative process to unfurl the nanotubes, followed by a chemical reduction step oxidized moieties [122] both provide 1020 nm wide ribbons with smooth edges, a major i”
