摘要

We study graphene nanoribbons and carbon nanotubes containing ordered defect lines built of octagonal rings. We show that octagonal defect lines are a robust source of state localization at the Fermi energy, in some cases leading to spontaneous magnetization. We also prove that the localization at chains of octagons is a consequence of the zigzag nature of the graphene edges forming the defect lines. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevB.87.165427
