The electronic and optical properties of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) depend on geometric configurations such as width and edge structure. The spin properties of these GNRs have been widely studied both theoretically and by scanning tunneling microscopy experiments. However, studies exploring their optical properties remain scarce. Scanning tunneling microscopy-induced luminescence (STML) provides sub-nanometer-scale spatial resolution to study these properties using light emitted from the sample. Pioneering STML studies [1] on modified GNRs unravel localized excitations that exhibit interesting optical properties. Despite this recent experimental progress, comprehensive theoretical description of these optical excitations in structures of varying size and geometry remains to be theoretically explored. Using first-principles electronic structure methods, we elucidate the electronic and optical properties of these localized excitations.
