In the modern age of nanotechnology, the discovery of graphene has opened up the way to
study and develop of several novel 2D materials. The unique physical and chemical …

This review presents the state of the art in strain and ripple-induced effects on the electronic
and optical properties of graphene. It starts by providing the crystallographic description of …

Two rich and vibrant fields of investigation—graphene physics and plasmonics—strongly
overlap. Not only does graphene possess intrinsic plasmons that are tunable and …

Graphene is just one example of a large class of two-dimensional crystals. These crystals
can either be extracted from layered three-dimensional materials or grown artificially by …

The analysis of the electronic properties of strained or lattice deformed graphene combines
ideas from classical condensed matter physics, soft matter, and geometrical aspects of …

Inspired by the success of graphene, various two dimensional (2D) structures in free
standing (FS)(hypothetical) form and on different substrates have been proposed recently …

The optical absorption of graphene layers prepared on top of a one-dimensional photonic
crystal (1DPC) is investigated theoretically. The absorption of graphene with 1DPC is …

Graphene is possibly one of the largest and fastest growing fields in condensed matter
research. However, graphene is only one example in a large class of two-dimensional …

We revise the tight-binding approach to strained or curved graphene in the presence of
external probes such as photoemission or scanning tunneling microscopy experiments. We …

We present an efficient graphene-based photodetector with two Fabri-Pérot cavities. It is
shown that the absorption can reach almost 100% around a given frequency, which is …
