In this paper, an analytical density of states modeling and simulation study was performed for 3m, 3m+1 and 3m+2 armchair-edge graphene nanoribbon under smaller tensile uniaxial strain. It has been discovered that the irregular variation in DOS as a function of energy when the tensile uniaxial strain is increased from 0% to 3%. In addition, despite to be reduced in terms of energy gap, 3m+1-AGNR is reported to have higher DOS compared to the other families of AGNR while the energy gap opening is confirmed to behave according to its family's behavior.
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.
