Graphene nanoribbons (also called "nano-graphene ribbons" or "nano-graphite ribbons"), often abbreviated GNRs, are strips of graphene with an ultra-thin width (<50 nm).

OBS

Carbon nanoribbons are often in the form of multiple layers of graphene. In the case of a single graphene layer, the term "graphene ribbon" is used.

Key term(s)
  • graphene nano-ribbon
  • nanographene ribbon
  • nanographite ribbon

CONT

Des physiciens des universités d'Umeå et d'Aalto ont trouvé un moyen simple pour synthétiser des nanorubans de graphène directement à l'intérieur de nanotubes de carbone à simple paroi. Ce matériau de carbone hybride semi-conducteur pourrait trouver des applications dans des transistors ou des cellules solaires.

OBS

Les nanorubans carbonés se présentent souvent sous forme de couches multiples de graphène. S'il n'y a qu'une seule couche de graphène, le terme «ruban de graphène» est utilisé.

Key term(s)
  • nano-ruban de graphène
