We compute the optical conductivity and polarization for an out-of-plane deformation in graphene nanostructure using a theoretical approach based on Dirac equation solutions on curved $2+1$ dimensional space-time, where the space part is considered to correspond to the Beltrami pseudosphere which belongs to the family of surfaces with negative constant Gaussian curvature. We found that different parameters of deformation along one direction translate into an enhancement of the optical conductivity peaks and polarization magnitude in the far-infrared frequencies. This allows for a very high degree of polarization with a single layer graphene and opens up a potential prospect of employing graphene layer as efficient polarizers. Therefore the experimental predictions related to the electronic configuration of the corresponding graphene-like sample may be explicitly worked out.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
