Abstract: Electronic transmission coefficients and density of states for uniaxially small strained armchair-edge graphene nanoribbons (AGNRs) are demonstrated by the first-principle calculations based on nonequilibrium Green’s function method and density-functional-theorem.It is observed that the system density of states and transmission coefficients of semiconducting AGNRs are sensitive to the external uniaxially small strain,while the energy gaps of metallic AGNRs may be opened under a small strain.

Key words: armchair-edge graphene nanoribbons, uniaxial strain, first-principles calculation, electron density of states, transmission coefficients
