We also propose a general pattern (hyperbolic) for these positions. On the other hand, we show that edge effect influences several atoms near the edge not just one. These results can be used in software, which compute atomic positions and can increase their efficiency. In addition, we prove that the C–C bond distance depends on dimer number and differs in length and width directions, especially for narrow AGNRs. The maximum value of these differences is about 0.017 Å. IS - 3 PB - OICC Press KW - Armchair graphene nanoribbon (AGNR), Atomic position, C–C bond length, Dimer, Structural relaxation EN -
