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…

The discovery of different phases as a result of correlations, especially in low-dimensional materials, has been always an exciting and fundamental subject of research. Recent experiments on twisted bilayer graphene have revealed reentrant…
