Mechanical and electronic properties of monolayer γ-B28 under uniaxial tension.
Total energy variation as a function of strain along (a) zigzag and (b) armchair direction, respectively. The associated density of states under different strain conditions are presented in (c) and (d). The insets at left top in (a) are side views for the structure at strain of 10% (upper) and 12% (lower) respectively, while the two at right bottle are top views for the structures at strain of 22% (left) and 24% (right) respectively. The corresponding panels in (b) are for the structures at strain of 16%, 18%, 52% and 54% from left to right.
