The two approaches mostly used so far either couple the electrical and mechanical properties of the system simultaneously or introduce some unwanted disturbances due to the substrate. Here, we report on silicon micromachined comb-drive actuators to controllably and reproducibly induce strain in a suspended graphene sheet in an entirely mechanical way. We use spatially resolved confocal Raman spectroscopy to quantify the induced strain, and we show that different strain fields can be obtained by engineering the clamping geometry, including tunable strain gradients of up to 1.4%/μm. Our approach also allows for multiple axis straining and is equally applicable to other two-dimensional materials, opening the door to investigating their mechanical and electromechanical properties. Our measurements also clearly identify defects at the edges of a graphene sheet as being weak spots responsible for its mechanical failure. 000849695 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-521$$a521 - Controlling Electron Charge-Based Phenomena (POF3-521)$$cPOF3-521$$fPOF III$$x0 000849695 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef 000849695 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)167238$$aSonntag, Jens$$b1 000849695 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aKhodkov, Tymofiy$$b2 000849695 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aVerbiest, Gerard Jan$$b3 000849695 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aReichardt, Sven$$b4 000849695 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aNeumann, Christoph$$b5 000849695 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aOuaj, Taoufiq$$b6 000849695 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)161247$$avon den Driesch, Nils$$b7 000849695 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)125569$$aBuca, Dan Mihai$$b8 000849695 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)142024$$aStampfer, Christoph$$b9$$eCorresponding author 000849695 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)2048866-X$$a10.1021/acs.nanolett.7b04774$$gVol. 18, no. 3, p. 1707 - 1713$$n3$$p1707 - 1713$$tNano letters$$v18$$x1530-6992$$y2018 000849695 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/849695/files/acs.nanolett.7b04774.pdf$$yRestricted 000849695 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/849695/files/1711.04505.pdf$$yOpenAccess 000849695 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/849695/files/acs.nanolett.7b04774.gif?subformat=icon$$xicon$$yRestricted 000849695 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/849695/files/acs.nanolett.7b04774.jpg?subformat=icon-1440$$xicon-1440$$yRestricted 000849695 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/849695/files/acs.nanolett.7b04774.jpg?subformat=icon-180$$xicon-180$$yRestricted 000849695 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/849695/files/acs.nanolett.7b04774.jpg?subformat=icon-640$$xicon-640$$yRestricted 000849695 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/849695/files/acs.nanolett.7b04774.pdf?subformat=pdfa$$xpdfa$$yRestricted 000849695 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/849695/files/1711.04505.pdf?subformat=pdfa$$xpdfa$$yOpenAccess 000849695 909CO $$ooai:juser.fz-juelich.de:849695$$pdnbdelivery$$pdriver$$pVDB$$popen_access$$popenaire 000849695 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)36225-6$$6P:(DE-HGF)0$$aRWTH Aachen$$b0$$kRWTH 000849695 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)167238$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b1$$kFZJ 000849695 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)36225-6$$6P:(DE-HGF)0$$aRWTH Aachen$$b2$$kRWTH 000849695 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)36225-6$$6P:(DE-HGF)0$$aRWTH Aachen$$b3$$kRWTH 000849695 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)36225-6$$6P:(DE-HGF)0$$aRWTH Aachen$$b4$$kRWTH 000849695 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)36225-6$$6P:(DE-HGF)0$$aRWTH Aachen$$b5$$kRWTH 000849695 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)36225-6$$6P:(DE-HGF)0$$aRWTH Aachen$$b6$$kRWTH 000849695 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)161247$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b7$$kFZJ 000849695 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)125569$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b8$$kFZJ 000849695 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)142024$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b9$$kFZJ 000849695 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-521$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF3-520$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF3-500$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF3$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bKey Technologies$$lFuture Information Technology - Fundamentals, Novel Concepts and Energy Efficiency (FIT)$$vControlling Electron Charge-Based Phenomena$$x0 000849695 9141_ $$y2018 000849695 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0200$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bSCOPUS 000849695 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0600$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bEbsco Academic Search 000849695 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0100$$2StatID$$aJCR$$bNANO LETT : 2015 000849695 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)9910$$2StatID$$aIF >= 10$$bNANO LETT : 2015 000849695 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0150$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bWeb of Science Core Collection 000849695 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0110$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index 000849695 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0111$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index Expanded 000849695 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0510$$2StatID$$aOpenAccess 000849695 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0030$$2StatID$$aPeer Review$$bASC 000849695 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1150$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bCurrent Contents - Physical, Chemical and Earth Sciences 000849695 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0310$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bNCBI Molecular Biology Database 000849695 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0300$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bMedline 000849695 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0199$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bThomson Reuters Master Journal List 000849695 920__ $$lyes 000849695 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)PGI-9-20110106$$kPGI-9$$lHalbleiter-Nanoelektronik$$x0 000849695 9201_ $$0I:(DE-82)080009_20140620$$kJARA-FIT$$lJARA-FIT$$x1 000849695 980__ $$ajournal 000849695 980__ $$aVDB 000849695 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)PGI-9-20110106 000849695 980__ $$aI:(DE-82)080009_20140620 000849695 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED 000849695 9801_ $$aFullTexts
