The Allure of Metallic Stripes: Single-Sized Narrow Ribbons of Graphene

Cutting-edge synthesis is gradually delivering new types of graphene nanoribbons, enabling comparison of their properties to theoretical predictions. In this issue of Chem, Wu and coworkers describe oligomers of N = 5 armchair graphene nanoribbons possessing near-metallic (Eg = 0.21 eV) behavior. Cu...
