Trionic effects in graphene nanoribbons and further nanomaterials — •Thorsten Deilmann and Kristian Sommer Thygesen — Center for Atomic-Scale Materials Design (CAMD), Department of Physics, Technical University of Denmark, DK-2800 Kongens Lyngby, Denmark

Among low-dimensional materials armchair-edged graphene nanoribbons are very promising candidates with optical properties which are dominates by excitons. In the presence of additional charges, trions (i.e. charged excitons) can occur in the optical spectrum. With our recently developed first-principle many-body approach [1], we predict strongly bound trions in nanoribbons with decreasing binding energies of 660 to 140 meV for widths of 3.6 to 14.6 Å. We determine their optical spectra and identify several trions by their real-space wave functions. [1] Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 196084.
