▎ 摘  要

Beltrami-shaped graphene sheets have been recently proposed as analogs of curved spacetimes with HawkingUnruh effects detected through typical condensed matter measurements involving scanning tunneling microscopes and spectroscopy. However, such deformed sheets, if ever fabricated, will contain large strain-induced pseudo-magnetic fields with important guiding effects on the motion of the electrons in the conduction band. Besides, possible surface polariton and plasmon modes are known to be important players in the radiative heat transfer which takes place in the natural near-field nanoscale experimental conditions. Therefore, we suggest that the latter class of experiments could shed light on phenomena related to the black hole membrane paradigm instead.
