Band structure engineering of graphene by strain: First-principles calculations

Gui, Gui, Li, Jin, Zhong, Jianxin·2008·Physical Review B

Abstract

We have investigated the electronic structure of graphene under different planar strain distributions using the first-principles pseudopotential plane-wave method and the tight-binding approach. We found that graphene with a symmetrical strain distribution is always a zero band-gap semiconductor and its pseudogap decreases linearly with the strain strength in the elastic regime. However, asymmetrical strain distributions in graphene result in opening of band gaps at the Fermi level. For the graphene with a strain distribution parallel to C-C bonds, its band gap continuously increases to its maximum width of 0.486 eV as the strain increases up to 12.2%. For the graphene with a strain distribution perpendicular to C-C bonds, its band gap continuously increases only to its maximum width of 0.170 eV as the strain increases up to 7.3%. The anisotropic nature of graphene is also reflected by different Poisson ratios under large strains in different directions. We found that the Poisson ratio approaches to a constant of 0.1732 under small strains but decreases differently under large strains along different directions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
