متن کاملStrain-induced suppression of weak localization in CVD-grown graphene.
We investigate the magnetic-field- and temperature-dependent transport properties of CVD-grown graphene transferred to a flexible substrate (Kapton) and subjected to externally applied strain. In zero magnetic field, a logarithmic temperature-dependent conductivity correction, resulting from strong electron-electron interaction, becomes weaker with the application of strains as large as 0.6% be...
متن کاملInhomogeneous strain-induced half-metallicity in bent zigzag graphene nanoribbons
Realization of half-metallicity in low dimensional materials is a fundamental challenge for nano spintronics, which is a critical component for next-generation information technology. Using the method of generalized Bloch theorem, we show that an in-plane bending can induce inhomogeneous strains, which in turn lead to spin-splitting in zigzag graphene nanoribbons and results in the highly desir...
متن کاملUniaxial Drawing of Graphene-PVA Nanocomposites: Improvement in Mechanical Characteristics via Strain-Induced Exfoliation of Graphene
Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-stabilized graphene nanosheets (GNS) of lateral dimension (L) ~1 μm are obtained via liquid phase exfoliation technique to prepare its composites in the PVA matrix. These composites show low levels of reinforcements due to poor alignment of GNS within the matrix as predicted by the modified Halpin-Tsai model. Drawing these composites up to 200 % strain, a significant imp...
متن کاملStrain-induced pseudomagnetic field for novel graphene electronics.
Particular strain geometry in graphene could lead to a uniform pseudomagnetic field of order 10T and might open up interesting applications in graphene nanoelectronics. Through quantum transport calculations of realistic strained graphene flakes of sizes of 100 nm, we examine possible means of exploiting this effect for practical electronics and valleytronics devices. First, we found that elast...
