Electronic properties of X۳ Zigzag Borophene nanoribbons in the presence of strain

In the present research the effect of uniaxial strain on the X۳ zigzag borophene nanoribbons areinvestigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Simulations contain both compressive andtensile strain where under the compressive strain we find out the bandgap of the nanoribbons is opened, whilethe tensile strain does not affect the bandgap. Based on the simulation results of this work by applying theproper values of strain the approximate band gap size can be reached to ۰.۲۶ eV.
