Shift of Dirac points and strain induced pseudo-magnetic field in graphene

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

We propose that the strain induced effective pseudo-magnetic field in graphene can also be explained by a curl movement of the Dirac points, if the Dirac points can be regarded as a slowly varying function of position. We also prove that the Dirac points must be confined within two triangles, each one has 1/8 the area of the Brillouin zone.
