Abstract Details: Two aspects of dirac fermions: Electron optics and unconventional band structure due to bound states. Abstract: The talk has two parts. In the first part we shall describe our last few years' work on optical analogy of ballistic electron transport in monolayer and bilayer Graphene. We shall particularly emphasize the electron transport through magnetic barriers, their super lattice under various circumstances and how optical analogy helps us to model such transport. In the second part of the talk we shall describe our recent work on the unconventional band structure of dirac fermions on the surface of three dimensional Topological Insulators due to formation of 'bound states in a potential barrier'. We particularly point out how it can lead to interesting application in fields like Spintronics. Main references: 1. Neetu Agrawal (Garg), Sankalpa Ghosh, and Manish Sharma, Int. J. Mod. Phys.
