Twisted bilayer graphene is a rich condensed matter system, which allows one to tune energy scales and electronic correlations. The low-energy physics of the resulting moir\'e structure can be mathematically described in terms of a…
When a set of particles are moving in a potential field, two aspects are concerned: 1) the relative motion of particle in spatial domain; 2) the particle velocity variations in time domain. The difficulty on treating the systems is…
It is widely known that the twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) shows flat bands at magic angles, which can be well described by the effective continuum model derived by Bistritzer and MacDonald (BM). We propose in this paper a similar twisted…
In the era of 2D and quasi-2D quantum materials one needs to model strain at the level of the Hamiltonian as opposed to a semi-classical approach. Corrections to the electronic Hamiltonian due to strain arise from two sources: deformations…
Twisted bilayer graphene exhibits isolated, relatively flat electronic bands near charge neutrality when the interlayer rotation is tuned to specific magic angles. These small misalignments, typically below 1.1{\deg}, result in long-period…
In this work, we present a consistent Hamiltonian analysis of cosmological perturbations at all orders. To make the procedure transparent, we consider a simple model and resolve the `gauge-fixing' issues and extend the analysis to scalar…
We consider the tight-binding model of graphene with slowly spatially varying hopping functions. We develop a low energy approximation as a derivative expansion in a Dirac spinor that is perturbative in the hopping function deformation. The…
Analytical treatments of tunneling in bilayer graphene have typically relied on minimal models including only the vertical interlayer hopping $\gamma_1$ and have been restricted to the weak interlayer bias regime $2\varepsilon \ll…
We extend the low-energy effective two-band Hamiltonian for electrons in bilayer graphene (E. McCann, V. I. Fal'ko, Phys. Rev. Lett. 96 (2006) 86805) to include a spatially dependent electrostatic potential. We find that this Hamiltonian…

A flat band can be studied an infinitely strong coupling, realized in a simple system. Therefore, its holographic realization should be interesting. Laia and Tong gave a realization of the flat band over the entire momentum region by…

Twisting bilayer sheets of graphene have been proven to be an efficient way to manipulate the electronic Dirac-like properties, resulting in flat bands at magic angles. Inspired by the electronic model, we develop a continuum model for the…
