Fano resonances appear in plenty of physical phenomena due to the interference phenomena of a continuum spectrum and discrete states. In gated bilayer graphene junctions, the chiral matching at oblique incidence between the spectrum of electron states outside the electrostatic barrier and hole bound states inside it gives rise to an asymmetric line shape in the transmission as a function of the energy or Fano resonance. Here, we show that Fano resonances are also possible in gated phosphorene junctions along the zigzag direction.

Here, we investigate the temperature effects on the transport properties of single magnetic silicene junctions. We use the transfer matrix method and the Landauer-Büttiker formalism to calculate the transmittance, conductance, spin-valley polarization and tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR).

We find confined states for both direction-dependent phosphorene junctions. In the case of AC junctions confined states are reflected in the transmission properties as Fabry-Pérot resonances at normal and oblique incidence.

The special profile presented by such resonances could significantly enhance the thermoelectric properties. In this work, we study the thermoelectric properties of bilayer graphene single and double barrier structures.

We consider that this phenomenon is as exotic as other phenomena in graphene because it can arise without an external extended states source or elaborate nano designs. However, there are not theoretical and/or experimental studies that report the impact of Fano resonances on the transport properties.
