Ultrafast Charge and Exciton Diffusion in Monolayer Films of 9-Armchair Graphene Nanoribbons.

ABSTRACT: Determining the electronic transport properties of graphene nanoribbons is crucial for assessing their suitability for applications. So far, this has been highly challenging both through experimental and theoretical approaches. This is particularly the case for graphene nanoribbons that are prepared by chemical vapor deposition, which is a scalable and industry-compatible bottom-up growth method that results in closely packed arrays of ribbons with relatively short lengths of a few tens of nanometers. In this study, the experimental technique of spatiotemporal microscopy is applied to study monolayer films of 9-armchair graphene nanoribbons prepared using this growth method, and combined with linear-scaling quantum transport calculations of arrays of thousands of nanoribbons.
