The focusing of electron flow in a symmetric p-n junction (PNJ) of graphene ribbon with different chiralities is studied. Considering the PNJ with the sharp interface, in a armchair ribbon, the electron flow emitting from $(-L,0)$ in…
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…
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…
In present work, we theoretically study the electron wave's focusing phenomenon in a single layered graphene pn junction(PNJ) and obtain the electric current density distribution of graphene PNJ, which is in good agreement with the…
In analogy with light refraction at optical boundary, ballistic electrons also undergo refraction when propagate across a semiconductor junction. Establishing a negative refractive index in conventional optical materials is difficult, but…
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…
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…
We theoretically study the electric current induced by the temporally oscillating magnetic field onto a three-dimensional topological insulator based on the linear response theory. The electric current flows on its surface because of the…
The surface bound electronic states of three-dimensional topological insulators, as well as the edge states in two-dimensional topological insulators, are investigated in the presence of a circularly polarized light. The strong coupling…
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…
We present a theoretical study of electron wave functions in ballistic circular n-p junctions of bilayer graphene. Similarly to the case of a circular n-p junction of monolayer graphene, we find that (i) the wave functions form caustics…
Focusing of electron waves in graphene p-n junctions is a striking manifestation of fermionic negative refraction. We analyze lensing in smooth p-n junctions and find that it differs in several interesting ways from that in the previously…
We study the effect of electron-electron interaction on the surface resistivity of three-dimensional (3D) topological insulators. In the absence of umklapp scattering, the existence of the Fermi-liquid ($T^2$) term in resistivity of a…
Electron hydrodynamics gives rise to surprising correlated behaviors in which electrons "cooperate" to quench dissipation and reduce the electric fields needed to sustain the flow. Such collective "free" flows are usually expected at the…
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,…
Ballistic electrons in phosphorene $pn$ junctions show optical-like phenomena. Phosphorene is modeled by a tight-binding Hamiltonian that describes its electronic structure at low energies, where the electrons behave in the zigzag direction…
We report an all-electric integrable electron focusing lens in n-type GaAs. It is shown that a pronounced focusing peak takes place when the focal point aligns with an on-chip detector. The intensity and full width half maximum (FWHM) of…
Ballistic heterojunctions of Dirac materials offer the opportunity of exploring optics-like phenomena in electronic systems. In this paper, a new perfect lens through special positive refraction is predicted with omnidirectional Klein…
The magnetic focusing of electrons has proven its utility in fundamental studies of electron transport. Here we report the direct imaging of magnetic focusing of electron waves, specifically in a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG). We see…
The Josephson diode effect, where the critical current magnitude depends on its direction, arises when both time-reversal and inversion symmetries are broken - often achieved by a combination of spin-orbit interaction and applied magnetic…
