High-Angular-Momentum Topological Superconductivity in the Largest-Angle Twisted Homo-bilayer Systems
Abstract
We study the largest-angle twisted homo-bilayer (LA-THB) systems, hosting Moir\'eless quasi-crystal (QC) structure. We propose to use these materials to generate high-angular-momentum (HAM) topological superconductivities (TSCs) protected by their QC symmetries absent on conventional crystalline materials. This proposal is based on our universal Ginzburg-Landau theory based analysis which yields the general conclusion that, when each -symmetric ( is even) monolayer hosts SC with pairing angular momentum , the interlayer Josephson coupling will induce SC with pairing angular momentum or in the LA-THB, determined by microscopic details. The latter one is just the HAM TSC if . Based on our revised perturbational-band theory, we develop general microscopic framework to study the QC LA-THBs involving electron-electron interactions, adopting which we study three examples, i.e. the 30- twisted bilayer graphene, the 30- twisted bilayer BC, and the 45- twisted bilayer cuprates. The - - and - TSCs with HAM and can emerge in certain doping regimes in these systems, respectively.
