Armchair graphene nanoribbons are novel one-dimensional semiconductors with well defined structure and promising optoelectronic properties. We present here for the first time observation of fluorescence from graphene nanoribbons and photophysical characterization for aligned nanoribbons on insulating substrates. We further determine the excitonic resonances in the material by wavelength dependent Raman spectroscopy. From photoluminescence measurements we obtain polarized non-bleaching emission that is excited by light polarized along the ribbon. We observe a clear spectral shift from the position of the lowest exciton. The emission is attributed to bright defects in the material, which is demonstrated by controlled photochemical induction.
