Superconducting electron focusing and guiding based on the Andreev reflection mechanism

Based on the principle of Andreev reflection, we suggest a novel normal-metal-superconductor composite structure capable of electron focusing and guiding. Such a structure may be used as a switching device. The resolution and performance of a model system have been evaluated numerically.
