“…5 Between the zigzag (z) and armchair-edged NRs, zigzagedged NRs are more interesting because of the presence of enhanced local-density of states near the Fermi-level, which in turn arise because of the localized electronic states at their edges. 6 Also, as proved by the previous studies on zGNRs 5,8,9 and zBNNRs, 3,10,11 these edge states can be tuned using different methods, namely, passivation, doping, substitution, application of external electric fields, and so on, to achieve tunable electronic and magnetic properties in these ribbons. Even, half-metallicity has been predicted in both zGNRs 7,8,12 and zBNNRs 1−3,13 under different conditions.…”
