Dirac carriers in graphene are commonly characterized by a pseudospin degree of freedom, arising from the degeneracy of the two inequivalent sublattices. The inherent chirality of the quasiparticles leads to a topologically non-trivial band…

We predict that neutral graphene bilayers are pseudospin magnets in which the charge density-contribution from each valley and spin spontaneously shifts to one of the two layers. The band structure of this system is characterized by a…

Interlayer sliding, together with twist angle, is a crucial parameter that defines the atomic registry and thus determines the properties of two-dimensional (2D) material homobilayers. Here, we theoretically demonstrate that controlled…
