Tunable Lifshitz Transitions and Multiband Transport in Tetralayer Graphene

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2018-03-09 v1

Abstract

As the Fermi level and band structure of two-dimensional materials are readily tunable, they constitute an ideal platform for exploring Lifshitz transition, a change in the topology of a material's Fermi surface. Using tetralayer graphene that host two intersecting massive Dirac bands, we demonstrate multiple Lifshitz transitions and multiband transport, which manifest as non-monotonic dependence of conductivity on charge density n and out-of-plane electric fieldD, anomalous quantum Hall sequences and Landau level crossings that evolve with n, D and B.
