We report an electron transport study of lithographically fabricated graphene nanoribbons of various widths and lengths at different temperatures. At the charge neutrality point, a length-independent transport gap forms whose size is inversely propor
tional to the width. In this gap, electron is localized, and charge transport exhibits a transition between simple thermally activated behavior at higher temperatures and a variable range hopping at lower temperatures. By varying the geometric capacitance through the addition of top gates, we find that charging effects constitute a significant portion of the activation energy.
