The dominance of Coulomb interactions over kinetic energy of electrons in narrow, non-trivial moir\'{e} bands of magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) gives rise to a variety of correlated phases such as correlated insulators,…

In twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) a moir\'e pattern forms that introduces a new length scale to the material. At the 'magic' twist angle of 1.1{\deg}, this causes a flat band to form, yielding emergent properties such as correlated…
