Pseudomagnetic focusing of valley-polarized beams in strained graphene

The study develops a scalable tight-binding model to investigate pseudomagnetotransport in strained graphene. It shows that transverse pseudomagnetic focusing can generate valley-polarized currents, and strain induces characteristic conductance oscillations in both bent ribbon devices and S-shaped ribbons, providing experimental signatures for straintronics.
