Edge-disorder-induced Anderson localization and conduction gap in graphene nanoribbons

Open access

Abstract

We study the effect of the edge disorder on the conductance of the graphene nanoribbons (GNRs). We find that already very modest edge disorder is sufficient to induce the conduction energy gap in the otherwise metallic GNRs and to lift any difference in the conductance between nanoribbons of different edge geometry. We relate the formation of the conduction gap to the pronounced edge-disorder-induced Anderson-type localization which leads to the strongly enhanced density of states at the edges, formation of surfacelike states, and to blocking of conductive paths through the ribbons.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
