Abstract
We study the effect of chiral-tunneling in Bernal and rhombohedral stacked trilayer-graphene (3LG). Based on the chirality of the electronic bands, at the K-point, (rhombohedral) Bernal-3LG exhibits 100% (50%) transparency across a heterojunction. Utilizing this property, we further investigate the effect of electron collimation in 3LG. Due to the difference in the Berry’s phase, we show that, rhombohedral-3LG is a better electron collimator, compared to monolayer and Bernal-bilayer graphene. Since, Bernal-3LG can be decomposed into two separate channels consisting of a monolayer and a modified Bernal-bilayer graphene; the Bernal-3LG is weaker electron collimator, compared to rhombohedral-3LG.
