Giant Goos–Hänchen-like shifts at the merging point in strained graphene double barriers

Abstract

Abstract Tunneling and the Goos–Hänchen-like (GHL) shifts of quasiparticles through double rectangular potential barriers in mono-layer graphene under uniaxial strain were considered. Expressions for the transmission coefficient and the lateral shift of the transferred beam were obtained by considering the boundary conditions and the stationary phase method, respectively. Moreover, the numerical results of the transmission probability and the lateral shifts for three values of the merging parameter, δ were presented. It was observed, for two values of δ, very large shifts could be obtained and we found the demeanor of the GHL shift is adjustable by changing parameters and is influenced strongly by δ. Finally, our calculations were examined by the limit condition in accordance with the results obtained for a single barrier in presence of the strong uniaxial strain.
