My research program is directed at obtaining a fundamental understanding of the physics of nanostructures, systems with dimensions ranging from about a nanometer to a few hundred nanometers. Nanostructures have properties that differ from those of both individual atoms and macroscopic everyday objects. Their importance for applications ranging from information processing to medicine is widely recognized. The proposed research will have a number of foci within this general theme: We will build on our previous successes elucidating the transport properties of graphene nanostructures, including nanoribbons of carbon atoms several nanometers wide and a single atomic layer thick. We will take this research in a new direction, prompted by the recent surprising experimental discovery that some graphene nanoribbons as long as 16 micrometers on SiC substrates exhibit conductances near

我的研究计划是针对获得纳米结构的物理学的基本理解，尺寸范围从大约一纳米到几百纳米的系统。纳米结构具有不同于单个原子和宏观日常物体的性质。它们对于从信息处理到医学的应用的重要性得到了广泛的认可。拟议的研究将在这个总的主题内有一些焦点：我们将建立在我们以前的成功基础上，阐明石墨烯纳米结构的传输特性，包括几纳米宽和单原子层厚的碳原子纳米带。我们将把这项研究推向一个新的方向，这是由最近令人惊讶的实验发现所推动的，即在SiC衬底上的一些长达16微米的石墨烯纳米带表现出接近100%的电导率。
