Unzipped Graphene

• arclein
specially made nanoribbons with smooth edges using a scanning tunnelling microscope (STM). These ribbons were obtained from Hongjie Dai's group at Stanford University, where they were produced by chemically unzipping carbon nanotubes (rolled up sheets of graphene) – a technique that produces well-ordered, straight edges along the entire length of a nanoribbon.
