We report on the investigation of periodic superstructures in twisted bilayer graphene (tBLG) van-der-Waals heterostructures, where one of the graphene layers is aligned to hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). Our theoretical simulations reveal…
We show analytically that the ability of Dirac materials to localize an electron in both a barrier and a well can be utilized to open a pseudo-gap in graphene's spectrum. By using narrow top-gates as guiding potentials, we demonstrate that…
When hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) and graphene are aligned at zero or small twist angle, a moir\'e structure is formed due to the small lattice constant mismatch between the two structures. In this work, we analyze magnetic ordering…
Two-dimensional (2D) crystals, such as graphene, hexagonal boron nitride and transitional metal dichalcogenides, have attracted tremendous amount of attention over the past decade due to their extraordinary thermal, electrical and optical…
Due to atomically thin structure, graphene/hexagonal boron nitride (G/hBN) heterostructures are intensively sensitive to the external mechanical forces and deformations being applied to their lattice structure. In particular, strain can…

We review the fabrication and transport characterization of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN)/Bernal bilayer graphene (BLG) moir\'e superlattices. Due to the moir\'e effect, the hBN/BLG moir\'e superlattices exhibit an energy gap at the charge…

In the presence of axial magnetic fields that can be realized in deliberately buckled monolayer graphene, quasi-relativistic Dirac fermions may find themselves in a variety of broken symmetry phases even for weak interactions. Through a…
The k.p method is a semi-empirical approach which allows to extrapolate the band structure of materials from the knowledge of a restricted set of parameters evaluated in correspondence of a single point of the reciprocal space. In the first…
