Introduction of nonhexagons and/or heteroatoms allows for finely tuning the physicochemical properties of nanographenes. Heteroatoms doping have dominated the modulation of nanographenes with tunable bandgap, rich electrochemical activities and so on. The pair of nonhexagons, for instance, pentagon-heptagon pairs, have furnished nanographenes with aromatic and/or antiaromatic characteristics, open-shell properties and so on.

1 Introduction Since its debut in 2004, the exceptional electronic, thermal, and mechanical properties of graphene have been vividly and thoroughly demonstrated in materials science.1-5 However, the application of graphene in field-effect transistors (FETs) has been limited due to its lack of a band gap.6 Generally, reducing the dimensionality of graphene to zero- and/or one-dimensional nanoscale fragments (named nanographenes, NGs) with defined size and edge structures is an option for...
