Size Effect on Failure of Pre-stretched Free-Standing Nanomembranes

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Free-standing nanomembranes are two-dimensional materials with nanometer thickness but can have macroscopic lateral dimensions. We develop a fracture model to evaluate a pre-stretched free standing circular ultrathin nanomembrane and establish a relation between...
