3/2 magic angle quantization rule of flat bands in twisted bilayer graphene and its relationship to the quantum Hall effect
نویسندگان
چکیده
Flat band electronic modes in twisted graphene bilayers are responsible for superconducting and other highly correlated electron-electron phases. Although some hints were known of a possible connection between the quantum Hall effect zero flat modes, it was not clear how such appears. Here behavior bilayer is studied using chiral model Hamiltonian. As result, proved that high-order magic angles, converge into coherent Landau states with dispersion $\sigma^2=1/3\alpha$, where $\alpha$ coupling parameter incorporates twist angle energetic scales. Then square hamiltonian, which $2\times 2$ matrix operator, turns out to be equivalent two-dimensional harmonic oscillator. The interlayer currents graphene's bipartite lattices identified angular momentum term while confinement potential an effective quadratic potential. From there limiting quantization rule i.e., $\alpha_{m+1}-\alpha_{m}=3/2$ $m$ order angle. All these results very good agreement numerical calculations.

We address the quantum Hall behavior in twisted bilayer graphene transferred from the C face of SiC. The measured Hall conductivity exhibits the same plateau values as for a commensurate Bernal bilayer. This implies that the eightfold degeneracy of the zero energy mode is topologically protected despite rotational disorder as recently predicted. In addition, an anomaly appears. The densities at...

متن کاملBroken-Symmetry Quantum Hall States in Twisted Bilayer Graphene
Twisted bilayer graphene offers a unique bilayer two-dimensional-electron system where the layer separation is only in sub-nanometer scale. Unlike Bernal-stacked bilayer, the layer degree of freedom is disentangled from spin and valley, providing eight-fold degeneracy in the low energy states. We have investigated broken-symmetry quantum Hall (QH) states and their transitions due to the interpl...

We investigate electronic transport in dual-gated twisted-bilayer graphene. Despite the subnanometer proximity between the layers, we identify independent contributions to the magnetoresistance from the graphene Landau level spectrum of each layer. We demonstrate that the filling factor of each layer can be independently controlled via the dual gates, which we use to induce Landau level crossin...

In this paper, I review the quantum Hall effect (QHE) and far-infra red (FIR) absorption properties of bilayer graphene in a strong magnetic field. This includes a derivation of the effective low-energy Hamiltonian for this system and the consequences of this Hamiltonian for the sequencing of the Landau levels in the material: the form of this effective Hamiltonian gives rise to the presence of...
