  • Abstract
    Recently, photo conductive properties of Graphene have been explored theoretically in [1] and experimentally in [2, 3]. In this paper we propose to build an optical bio sensor using Graphene Nano Ribbon (GNR). It is known that the band gap of GNR is controlled by the width of ribbon. The relation between the band gap and the width of the GNR is given by equation (1).
