Graphene under uniaxial inhomogeneous strain and an external electric field: Landau levels, electronic, magnetic and optical properties

We investigate graphene under an inhomogeneous uniaxial strain and an in-plane electric field. We examine in detail the effect of strain and the electric field on relativistic Landau levels, Hall conductivity, de Haas-van Alphen oscillation and optical conductivity. Using Lorentz transformation in combination with supersymmetric quantum mechanics, we examine three different structures of Landau levels induced by three different profiles of inhomogeneous uniaxial strain and external electric fields. It is shown that strain-induced pseudomagnetic field forms Landau levels while electric field opposes formation of these levels. Besides the collapse of strain induced Landau levels, the influences of electric field on the quantization of strain dependent valley Hall conductivity, de Haas-van Alphen quantum oscillation of magnetization as well as optical conductivity have been investigated.
