Dirac fermions collimation in heterostructures based on tilted Dirac cone materials

Abstract: This paper aims to theoretically analyze the behavior of Dirac fermions in tilted Dirac cone material, particularly those that have diffused a barrier potential.Our results show that the degree of tilt in the y-direction can lead to different collimations of the Dirac fermion beams relative to the Fermi and confinement surfaces. To study the transmission probability, we exploited our results numerically, taking into account the various configurations of the system and the different external and internal physical parameters by characterizing the behavior of fermionic transport in a proposed heterostructure. Our findings lay the groundwork for developing controllable electronic devices utilizing Dirac fermion collimation, governed by the tilt parameter, enabling precise manipulation and enhanced functionality.
