Magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG) hosts a multitude of strongly correlated states at partial fillings of its flat bands. In a magnetic field, these flat bands further evolve into a unique Hofstadter spectrum renormalized by…

Strain-induced pseudo-magnetic fields can mimic real magnetic fields to generate a zero-magnetic-field analogue of the Landau levels (LLs), i.e., the pseudo-LLs, in graphene. The distinct nature of the pseudo-LLs enables one to realize…
