Formation of Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes Via the Interaction of Graphene Nanoribbons: ab initio Density Functional Calculations
Recently, single graphite layers, referred to as Graphene nanoribbons (GNR) have been prepared experimentally by using conventional methods, such as cutting mechanically exfoloiated graphenes or by patterning epitaxially grown graphenes [1-2]. On the other hand, [...]
