Strain Engineering in Van Der Waals Materials for Flexible Electronics and Optoelectronics
Strain engineering precisely tunes van der Waals materials’ electronic and optical properties for flexible electronics. This review covers uniaxial, biaxial, and localized strain methods, analyzing their effects on band structure, carrier mobility, and phase transitions. Applications include high-performance sensors, transistors, memristors, photodetectors, and LEDs. Future challenges involve scalable material growth, efficient strain transfer, and integration toward intelligent wearable systems.
