Chirally stacked N-layer graphene with N>=2 is susceptible to a variety of distinct broken symmetry states in which each spin-valley flavor spontaneously transfers charge between layers. In mean-field theory the neutral bilayer ground state…
The nature of correlated states in twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) at the magic angle has received intense attention in recent years. We present a numerical study of an interacting Bistritzer-MacDonald (IBM) model of TBG using a suite of…
Theory predicts that the application of an electric field breaks the inversion symmetry of AB and BA stacked domains in twisted bilayer graphene, resulting in the formation of a triangular network of one-dimensional valley-protected helical…
Crystalline graphene heterostructures, namely, Bernal bilayer graphene (BBLG) and rhombohedral trilayer graphene (RTLG), for example, subject to perpendicular electric displacement fields, display a rich confluence of competing orders,…
Semiconductor double-layers in the quantum Hall regime tend to have superfluid exciton condensate ground states when the total filling factor is an odd integer, provided that the Landau orbitals at the Fermi level in the two layers have the…
Despite much theoretical work, developing a comprehensive ab initio model for twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) has proven challenging due to the inherent trade-off between accurately describing the band structure and incorporating the…
Electrostatic confinement of charge carriers in bilayer graphene provides a unique platform for carbon-based spin, charge or exchange qubits. By exploiting the possibility to induce a band gap with electrostatic gating, we form a versatile…
Bilayer graphene in a magnetic field supports eight zero-energy Landau levels, which, as a tunable band gap develops, split into two nearly-degenerate quartets separated by the band gap. A close look is made into the properties of such an…
A striking series of experiments have observed superconductivity in Bernal-stacked bilayer graphene (BBG) when the energy bands are flattened by applying an electrical displacement field. Intriguingly, superconductivity manifests only at…
Quantum manipulation of valleys in bilayer graphene is investigated. We establish an effective Schrodinger model, and identify two key mechanisms for valley manipulation - band structure warping and generalized valley-orbit interaction.…
We have used variational states to analyze the effects of band geometry on the two-dimensional Wigner crystal with one and two electrons per unit cell. At sufficiently low electron densities, we find that increasing Berry curvature drives a…
Silicon has many attractive properties for quantum computing, and the quantum dot architecture is appealing because of its controllability and scalability. However, the multiple valleys in the silicon conduction band are potentially a…
By applying the infinite-mass boundary condition, we analytically calculate the confined states and the corresponding wave functions of AA-stacked bilayer graphene quantum {dots} in the presence of an uniform magnetic field $B$. It is found…
We use self-consistent Hartree-Fock calculations performed in the full $\pi$-band Hilbert space to assess the nature of the recently discovered correlated insulator states in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (TBG). We find that gaps…
New phases of matter can be stabilized by a combination of diverging electronic density of states, strong interactions, and spin-orbit coupling. Recent experiments in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) have uncovered a wealth of…
We set up and parametrize a Hubbard model for interacting quantum dots in bilayer graphene and study double dots as the smallest multi-dot system. We demonstrate the tunability of the spin and valley multiplets, Hubbard parameters, and…
Experimental realization of graphene-based stadium-shaped quantum dots (QDs) have been few and incompatible with scanned probe microscopy. Yet, direct visualization of electronic states within these QDs is crucial for determining the…
Monitoring electronic properties of 2D materials is an essential step to open a way for applications such as electronic devices and sensors. From this perspective, Bernal bilayer graphene (BLG) is a fairly simple system that offers great…
Bilayer graphene hosts valley-chiral one dimensional modes at domain walls between regions of different interlayer potential or stacking order. When such a channel is brought into proximity to a superconductor, the two electrons of a Cooper…
The rise of graphene opens a new door to qubit implementation, as discussed in the recent proposal of valley pair qubits in double quantum dots of gapped graphene (Wu et al., arXiv: 1104.0443 [cond-mat.mes-hall]). The work here presents the…
