A new two-dimensional (2D) carbon allotrope, namely Tetrahexcarbon (TH-carbon) semiconductor monolayer with a direct band gap resides in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectra, has been recently proposed theoretically. Herein, the influences of biaxial strains on the electrical and optica...
