It has been predicted that zigzag-ended and chiral-ended graphene nanostructures develop spatially and spectrally localized edge states around the Fermi level. However, experimental evidence remains scarce as atomic-scale investigations of such graphene terminations and their related electronic states are very challenging. Graphene epitaxially grown on metal substrates is one of the most promising candidates for obtaining a scalable methodology for high-quality production. In this work we present a combined experimental and theoretical study on graphene stripes showing strong metallic edge states. By means of scanning tunneling microscopy, we demonstrate the use of vicinal Pt(111) as a template for the growth of graphene stripes presenting strong sublattice localized electronic states at room temperature.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wp.icmm.csic.es\/esisna\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2018\/02\/toc_v1-1.png\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2671\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2671 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.icmm.csic.es\/esisna\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2018\/02\/toc_v1-1.png\" alt=\"toc_v1\" width=\"338\" height=\"192\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.icmm.csic.es\/esisna\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2018\/02\/toc_v1-1.png 415w, https:\/\/wp.icmm.csic.es\/esisna\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2018\/02\/toc_v1-1-300x171.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 338px) 100vw, 338px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Full text in this link:<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pubs.rsc.org\/en\/content\/articlelanding\/2017\/nr\/c7nr00367f#!divAbstract\"><strong>Atomically-resolved edge states on surface-nanotemplated graphene explored at room temperature, <\/strong>P.
