near-perfect transmission of chiral charge carriers through high potential barriers in graphene, a condensed matter analog of the relativistic Klein paradox.

In condensed matter physics, Klein tunneling refers to near-perfect transmission of chiral charge carriers through high potential barriers in graphene, a condensed matter analog of the relativistic Klein paradox. This meaning comes from Katsnelson (2006) in Nature Physics.[1]
