▎ 摘 要
Structurally defined, long (>100 nm), and low-band-gap (similar to 1.2 eV) graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) were synthesized through a bottom-up approach, enabling GNRs with a broad absorption spanning into the near-infrared (NIR) region. The chemical identity of GNRs was validated by IR, Raman, solid-state NMR, and UV-vis-NIR absorption spectroscopy. Atomic force microscopy revealed well-ordered self-assembled monolayers of uniform GNRs on a graphite surface upon deposition from the liquid phase. The broad absorption of the low-band-gap GNRs enables their detailed characterization by Raman and time-resolved terahertz photoconductivity spectroscopy with excitation at multiple wavelengths, including the NIR region, which provides further insights into the fundamental physical properties of such graphene nanostructures.
