Strain engineering is one of the key technologies for using graphene as an electronic device: the strain-induced pseudo-gauge field reflects Dirac electrons, thus opening the so-called conduction gap. Since strain accumulates in…
Although plasmon modes exist in doped graphene, the limited range of doping achieved by gating restricts the plasmon frequencies to a range that does not include visible and infrared. Here we show, through the use of first-principles…
