Abstract
We study the transmission probability of Dirac fermions in graphene scattered by a triangular double barrier potential in the presence of an external magnetic field. Our system is made of two triangular potential barrier regions separated by a well region characterized by an energy gap. Solving our Dirac-like equation and matching the solutions at the boundaries allowed us to express our transmission and reflection coefficients in terms of transfer matrix. We show in particular that the transmission exhibits oscillation resonances that are a manifestation of the Klein tunneling effect. The strength of the electrostatic field giving rise to the triangular barrier was found to play a key role in controlling the tunneling peaks appearing in the resistance. However, it only slightly modifies the resonances at oblique incidence and leaves Klein paradox unaffected at normal incidence.
