Abstract | We have model the corrugated graphene by applying strain and breaking the symmetry of pure graphene. In the present study, we are not using any substrate. Electronic properties like bandstructure and density of states are studied for corrugated graphene as well as pure graphene. We have not found any opening in band as reported by A. Rossi etal.. We expect that band gap will open by applying higher strain to the pure graphene. Adsorption of water molecule on corrugated graphene is stuided by taking into account van der waal’s interaction correction. Water molecule prefers the valley region of the corrugated graphene.We have model the corrugated graphene by applying strain and breaking the symmetry of pure graphene.
