We investigate the optical response of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) using broadband nonlinear generation and detection capabilities nanoscale junctions created at LaAlO3/SrTiO3 interface. GNR nanoclusters measured to be as small 1–2 GNRs in size are deposited on LaAlO3 surface with an atomic force microscope tip. Time-resolved probes reveal a strong, gate-tunable second third harmonic response, ...
