Loop formation in graphitic nanoribbon edges using furnace heating or Joule heating

Here the authors report the use of either furnace heating or Joule heating to pacify the exposed graphene edges by loop formation in a novel graphitic nanoribbonmaterial, grown by chemical vapor deposition. The edge energy minimization process involves the formation of loops between adjacent graphen...
