Description:

(abstract)

We present a method of creating highly‐collimated electron beams in graphene based on collinear pairs of slits and absorption of electrons that do not make it through both slits. With this method, we achieve beams whose full width at half maximum are 180 and 8.50 depending on geometry. The ballistic trajectories that should pass through both slits have high transmission probabilities.
