Strain-Tuned Optical Properties of a Two-Dimensional Hexagonal Lattice: Exploiting Saddle Degrees of Freedom and Saddle Filtering EffectsThe deformation of hexagonal lattices has attracted considerable attention due to its promising applications in straintronics. This study employs the tight-binding model to investigate the anisotropic spectrum, where electronic transport can be manipulated by the degree of deformation. The longitudinal conductivities, light transmittance, and absorbance are analyzed, revealing enhancement along one direction and suppression along the other. The findings indicate that the direction and magnitude…
