In-Situ Stretching Patterned Graphene Nanoribbons in the Transmission Electron Microscope

Abstract The mechanical response of patterned graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with a width less than 100 nm was studied in-situ using quantitative tensile testing in a transmission electron microscope (TEM). A high degree of crystallinity was confirmed for patterned nanoribbons before and after the in-s...
