The relativistic charge carriers in monolayer graphene can be manipulated in manners akin to conventional optics (electron-optics): angle-dependent Klein tunneling collimates an electron beam (analogous to a laser), while a Veselago…
We show that a graphene pnp junction with a central superconducting electrode acts as a Veselago lens for incoming electrons by focusing them and their phase-conjugated counterpart (holes) into different points of the optical axis. This…
Asymmetric Veselago lenses (AVLs) can be created from ballistic $p$-$n$ and $n$-$p$-$n$ homojunctions of uniaxially strained graphene. This atypical converging electron flow emerges by applying uniaxial tension out of the device's symmetry…
A remarkable property of intrinsic graphene is that upon doping, electrons and holes travel through the monolayer thick material with constant velocity which does not depend on energy up to about $0.3$ eV (Dirac fermions), as though the…
The effect by which light focuses upon entering a medium with a negative refractive index, known as Veselago lensing, may enable optical imaging below the diffraction limit. Similarly, focusing electrons across a $pn$-junction could realize…
Bilayer graphene has drawn significant attention due to the opening of a band gap in its low energy electronic spectrum, which offers a promising route to electronic applications. The gap can be either tunable through an external electric…
We propose a scheme to trap and filter electrons, valley dependently, on a scale beyond the diffraction limit, in a gapped Dirac system using a circularly polarized light beam and a microscale metallic resonator. The main mechanism allowing…
Magnetic fields force ballistic electrons injected from a narrow contact to move along skipping orbits and form caustics. This leads to pronounced resistance peaks at nearby voltage probes as electrons are effectively focused inside them, a…
We present ab initio theory for electron reflection spectroscopy of few-layer graphene for arbitrary angles of incidence. The inelastic effects are included in a consistent way using the optical potential retrieved from ab initio…
Achieving a population imbalance between the two inequivalent valleys is a critical first step for any valleytronic device. A valley-polarization can be induced in biased bilayer graphene using circularly polarized light. In this paper, we…
We describe an angularly asymmetric interface-scattering mechanism which allows to spatially separate the electrons in the two low-energy valleys of bilayer graphene. The effect occurs at electrostatically defined interfaces separating…
Band structure determines the motion of electrons in a solid, giving rise to exotic phenomena when properly engineered. Drawing an analogy between electrons and photons, artificially designed optical lattices indicate the possibility of a…
We study theoretically interaction of a bilayer graphene with a circularly polarized ultrafast optical pulse of a single oscillation at an oblique incidence. The normal component of the pulse breaks the inversion symmetry of the system and…
The focusing of electric current by a single \textit{p-n} junction in graphene is predicted. We show that precise focusing can be achieved by fine-tuning the densities of carriers on the n- and p-sides of the junction to equal values,…
We propose the implementation of an electronic Veselago lens on the conducting surface of a three-dimensional topological insulator (such as Bi2Te3). The negative refraction needed for such a flat lens results from the sign change of the…
Twisted Bilayer Graphene at the magic twist angle features flat energy bands, which lead to superconductivity and strong correlation physics. These unique properties are typically limited to a narrow range of twist angles around the magic…
Bilayer graphene (two coupled graphitic monolayers arranged according to Bernal stacking) is a two-dimensional gapless semiconductor with a peculiar electronic spectrum different from the Dirac spectrum in the monolayer material. In…
We investigate the contribution of the low-energy electronic excitations towards the Raman spectrum of bilayer graphene for the incoming photon energy Omega >> 1eV. Starting with the four-band tight-binding model, we derive an effective…
Veselago pointed out that electromagnetic wave theory allows for materials with a negative index of refraction, in which most known optical phenomena would be reversed. A slab of such a material can focus light by negative refraction, an…
In twisted bilayer graphene (TBLG), chiral tunneling can be tuned by parameters such as the twist angle, barrier height, and Fermi energy. This differs from the tunneling behavior observed in monolayer and Bernal bilayer graphene, where…
