On the Impact of Substrate Uniform Mechanical Tension on the Graphene Electronic Structure

Employing density functional theory calculations, we obtain the possibility of fine-tuning the bandgap in graphene deposited on the hexagonal boron nitride and graphitic carbon nitride substrates. We found that the graphene sheet located on these substrates possesses the semiconducting gap, and unif...
