Katsnelson Marco Polini It is widely believed that carrier-density inhomogeneities electron-hole puddles” in single-layer graphene on a substrate like quartz are due to charged impurities located close to the graphene sheet . Here we demonstrate by using a Kohn-Sham-Dirac density-functional scheme that corrugations in a real sample are sufficient to determine

Support gives firm ground for applications , and adhesion holds ribbons flat , although not necessarily straight : ribbons with high aspect ratio are prone to bend . The effects of bending on ribbons’ electronic properties , however , are unknown . Therefore , this article examines the electromechanics of planar and gently bent graphene nanoribbons
