Length-dependent symmetry in narrow chevron-like graphene nanoribbons.

ABSTRACT: We report the structural and electronic properties of narrow chevron-like graphene nanoribbons (GNRs), which depending on their length are either mirror or inversion symmetric. Additionally, GNRs of different length can form molecular heterojunctions based on an unusual binding motif.
