Valley polarized electronic beam splitting in graphene

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2007-10-05 v1

Abstract

We show how the trigonal warping effect in doped graphene can be used to produce fully valley polarized currents. We propose a device that acts both as a beam splitter and a collimator of these electronic currents. The result is demonstrated trough an optical analogy using two dimensional photonic crystals.
