Strain engineering of graphene

The focus of this thesis is on using mechanical strain to tailor the electronic properties of graphene. The first half covers the electro-mechanical coupling for graphene in different configurations, namely a hexagonal Y-junction, various shaped bubbles on different substrates, and with kirigami...
