1201.2656 (Fernando de Juan et al.)

Space dependent Fermi velocity in strained graphene    [PDF]

Fernando de Juan, Mauricio Sturla, Maria A. H. Vozmediano
We resolve some apparent discrepancies between two different models for curved graphene: the one based on tight binding and elasticity theory, and the covariant approach based on quantum field theory in curved space. We demonstrate that strained or corrugated samples will have a space dependent Fermi velocity in either approach that can affect the interpretation of some experiments.
