We study the room-temperature electrical control of charge and spin transport in high-quality bilayer graphene, fully encapsulated with hBN and contacted via 1D spin injectors. We show that spin transport in this device architecture is…

Conduction between graphene layers is suppressed by momentum conservation whenever the layer stacking has a rotation. Here we show that phonon scattering plays a crucial role in facilitating interlayer conduction. The resulting dependence…
