Graphene Bilayers with a Twist

Near a magic twist angle, bilayer graphene transforms from a weakly correlated Fermi liquid to a strongly correlated two-dimensional electron system with properties that are extraordinarily sensitive to carrier density and to controllable environmental factors such as the proximity of nearby gates and twist-angle variation. Among other phenomena magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene hosts superconductivity, interaction induced insulating states, magnetism, electronic nematicity, linear-in-T low-temperature resistivity, and quantized anomalous Hall states. We highlight some key research results in this field, point to important questions that remain open, and comment on the place of magic angle twisted bilayer graphene in the strongly correlated quantum matter world.
