Shaping atomically thin materials in suspended structures may provide a viable platform for nanoscale mechanical oscillators. Here, the authors demonstrate wafer-scale, high-yield synthesis of suspended graphene nanoribbon arrays using a bottom-up approach and shed light into their growth dynamics.
