摘要

Alternating-current small-signal admittances of armchair graphene nanoribbons are investigated using the method of non-equilibrium Green's function. The calculated ac admittances show an oscillatory response between inductive and capacitive behaviors, which is a result of the finite length of the graphene nanoribbon. The effects of hydrogen-passivated edges on ac response are demonstrated. At low frequency, the edge effects transform the inductive behavior in a metallic graphene nanoribbon into a capacitive one. Finally, the effects of variations in the width and bandgap of a graphene nanoribbon on its dynamic response are investigated.
