Moiré band structures of the double twisted few-layer graphene

چکیده

Very recently, unconventional superconductivity has been observed in the double twisted trilayer graphene (TLG), where three monolayer (MLG) are stacked on top of each other with two twist angles [J. M. Park, et al., Nature 590, 249 (2021); Z. Hao, Science 371, 1133 X. Zhang, Phys. Rev. Lett.127, 166802 (2021)]. When some MLGs TLG replaced by bilayer (BLG), we get a new family moire heterostructure, namely few layer (DTFLG). In this work, theoretically investigate band structures DTFLGs diverse arrangements MLG and BLG. We find that, depending relative rotation direction (alternate or chiral twist) middle van der Waals (vdW) (MLG BLG), general (X+Y+Z)-DTFLG can be classified into four categories, i.e. (X+1+Z)-ATFLG, (X+2+Z)-ATFLG, (X+1+Z)-CTFLG (X+2+Z)-CTFLG, which its own unique structure. Here, X, Y, Z denote vdW layers, Interestingly, (X+1+Z)-ATFLGs have pair perfect flat bands at magic angle about $1.54^\circ$ coexisting linear parabolic bands, is quite like TLG. Meanwhile, when smaller than "magic angle" $1.70^\circ$, (X+2+Z)-CTFLGs isolated narrow $E_f$ width less 5 meV. The influence electric field topological features studied as well. Our work indicates that DTFLGs, especially (X+1+Z)-ATFLG promising platforms to study induced novel correlation effects.

Moire bands in twisted double-layer graphene.

A moiré pattern is formed when two copies of a periodic pattern are overlaid with a relative twist. We address the electronic structure of a twisted two-layer graphene system, showing that in its continuum Dirac model the moiré pattern periodicity leads to moiré Bloch bands. The two layers become more strongly coupled and the Dirac velocity crosses zero several times as the twist angle is reduc...

Weak localization in electric-double-layer gated few-layer graphene

We induce surface carrier densities up to ∼ ⋅ 7 1014 cm−2 in few-layer graphene devices by electric double layer gating with a polymeric electrolyte. In 3-, 4and 5-layer graphene below 20–30 K we observe a logarithmic upturn of resistance that we attribute to weak localization in the diffusive regime. By studying this effect as a function of carrier density and with ab initio calculations we de...

Nanoscale measurements of unoccupied band dispersion in few-layer graphene.

The properties of any material are fundamentally determined by its electronic band structure. Each band represents a series of allowed states inside a material, relating electron energy and momentum. The occupied bands, that is, the filled electron states below the Fermi level, can be routinely measured. However, it is remarkably difficult to characterize the empty part of the band structure ex...

Tunable band gap in few-layer graphene by surface adsorption

There is a tunable band gap in ABC-stacked few-layer graphene (FLG) via applying a vertical electric field, but the operation of FLG-based field effect transistor (FET) requires two gates to create a band gap and tune channel’s conductance individually. Using first principle calculations, we propose an alternative scheme to open a band gap in ABC-stacked FLG namely via single-side adsorption. T...

Enhancement of electron-hole superfluidity in double few-layer graphene

We propose two coupled electron-hole sheets of few-layer graphene as a new nanostructure to observe superfluidity at enhanced densities and enhanced transition temperatures. For ABC stacked few-layer graphene we show that the strongly correlated electron-hole pairing regime is readily accessible experimentally using current technologies. We find for double trilayer and quadlayer graphene sheets...
