Abstract
The recent experimental study of the far-infrared transmission spectroscopy of monolayer graphene has shown that the Drude peak width increases by more than per of applied mechanical strain, while the Drude weight remains unchanged. We study the influence of the strain on the resonant impurity scattering. We propose a mechanism of augmentation of the scattering rate due to the shift in the position of resonance. Using the Lifshitz model of substitutional impurities, we investigate changes in the Drude peak weight and width as functions of the Fermi energy, impurity concentration and magnitude of the impurity potential.
