contents We study the transmission and group delay time for fermions in graphene under a proximity exchange field scattered by double barriers. Solving the Dirac equation over five regions, we calculate transmission and reflection coefficients using the transfer matrix method, and analyze group delay time using a Gaussian wave packet and the stationary phase method. Our results reveal spin-dependent features in transmission and group delay time, with notable shifts between spin orientations, especially for configurations with up to three layers of boron nitride (BN). We observe enhanced Klein tunneling peaks and full transmission conditions for certain combinations of system parameters. The double-barrier configuration also significantly improves the group delay time compared to the single-barrier case. In fact, we show that the group delay time oscillates as the barrier width increases without showing signs of saturation, indicating the absence of the Hartman effect. This is in contrast to the single-barrier case, where the group delay time is found to saturate as the barrier width increases. In addition, we identify critical angles and maximum energies for evanescent modes.
