We report in the journal Science a bottom-up method to synthesize nanoporous graphene comprising an ordered array of pores separated by ribbons, which can be tuned down to the 1-nanometer range. The size, density, morphology, and chemical composition of the pores are defined with atomic precision by the design of the molecular precursors. The electronic characterization further reveals a highly anisotropic electronic structure, where orthogonal one-dimensional electronic bands with an […]
We develop novel nanodevices to gain insight into the physical properties of materials at the nanoscale, from metals to graphene, to topological insulators
