Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) an attractive basis for coherent electron transport. We study configurations that provide functionalities for simple "electron quantum optics" setups.

A central building block of such setups is the four-terminal device formed by two GNRs crossing each other at 60 degrees.

Using a tight-binding approximation and the Green's function formalism we analyze the transmission amplitudes between the four arms for low-energy electrons. Studying different widths, stackings and GNR edge topologies, we identify promising settings with suppressed back-scattering and those realizing functionalities such a 50:50 beam splitting or full transfer between the stacked ribbons. Applications for GNR-based interferometers are discussed.
