MC2 Post 1807 PropHat Topic: Ballistic Electrons Go Further in Nanoribbons






"graphene nanoribbons" Propeller Hat Time, folks....



It's basically the lead in a pencil

An international group of researchers has shown that electrons can travel more than 10 μm in graphene nanoribbons without scattering – which is much further than predicted by theory. Even more surprising, the team spotted a large jump in the electrical resistance of sections of nanoribbon that are longer than about 16 μm. These puzzling results could suggest that graphene harbours a new type of electronic transport mechanism hitherto unknown to physicists.

Now, Walt de Heer and colleagues at the Georgia Institute of Technology – along with researchers in Germany, France and the US – have created pristine ribbons of epitaxial graphene just 40 nm wide.
