This might be helpful to do it, see https://docs.quantumwise.com/tutorials/vnl_graphene_transistor/vnl_graphene_transistor.html#vnl-graphene-transistor-small. Note that you can always replace C atoms with As in the Builder, using the Periodic Table plugin in the Builder.

You may use Crystal Builder to build bulk 2D crystal, using a primitive cell or unit cell, see https://docs.quantumwise.com/tutorials/crystal_builder/crystal_builder.html, and then use  Repeat plugin in the Builder to make a nanosheet. A nanoribbon can be created by etching the nanosheet, i.e., removing some of the  atoms to design the required nanoribbon edges.
