We investigate the Schrödinger (non-relativistic) and the Dirac (“relativistic”) billiards in the universal regime. The study is based on a non-ideal quantum resonant scattering numerical simulation. We show universal results that reveal anomalous behaviour on the conductance, on the shot-noise power and on the respective eigenvalues distributions. In particular, we demonstrate the Klein’s paradox in the graphene and tunable suppression/amplification transitions on the typical observables of the quantum dots.
