Ballistic electron beams in clean metals can be focused by passing currents through well designed contraptions, which is mostly done in isotropic materials described by a circular Fermi surface. Here, the authors demonstrate that the almost hexagonal Fermi surface of PdCoO2 gives rise to highly directional ballistic transport with enhanced electron self-focusing effects.
