Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs), narrow stripes of graphene, are promising candidates for future elec-tronic applications due to their widely adjustable electronic properties. The precise control of their atomic structure, including their termini, edges and width, allow for the realization of specific electronic quantum phases. For example, GNRs with chiral edges or cove edges have been predicted to host spin-polarized edge states. And recently, topological electronic quantum phases have been predicted and realized in the junctions between GNR segments belonging to different topological classes. Here, I will show the synthesis and characterization of width-modulated GNRs that host topological junction states. By investigating such GNRs as a function of the number of periodically aligned junction states along the GNR axis, we follow the evolution of the new electronic bands formed by the finite overlap between the junction states. Furthermore, we investigate the interaction between boundary states in topological heterojunctions, revealing an interaction-induced energy splitting that decays exponentially with their relative separation.
