Abstract
A method for forming graphene nanoribbons includes: (a) dispersing carbon nanotubes in a solvent to obtain a nanotube-dispersing solution; (b) adding an oxidant into the nanotube-dispersing solution to obtain a reaction solution; and (c) microwave heating the reaction solution and longitudinally unzipping the carbon nanotubes to form graphene nanoribbons.
