Electron focusing with multiparallel one-dimensional channels made by focused ion beam

Abstract
Electron focusing effect is observed in a two-dimensional electron gas using samples with simple multiparallel one-dimensional channels made by a Be focused ion beam (FIB). Subharmonics and harmonics are resolved; their strengths allow a direct determination of the elastic scattering length le =1.8 μm and the specularity coefficient p=0.35 for electron reflection at the boundary defined by the FIB. The temperature dependence of the focusing effect is much weaker than the Shubnikov–de Haas effect.
