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…

As most materials available in macroscopic quantities, graphene appears in a polycrystalline form and thus contains grain boundaries. In the present work, the effect of uniaxial strain on the electronic transport properties through graphene…
