Band Structure and Energy Level Alignment of Chiral Graphene Nanoribbons on Silver Surfaces

Chiral graphene nanoribbons are extremely interesting structures due to their narrow band gaps and potential development of spin-polarized edge states. Here, we study their band structure on low work function silver surfaces. The use of a curved Ag single crystal provides, within the same sample, re...
