Electronic structure of 30° twisted double bilayer graphene
arXiv:1908.08439 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.102.115123
Abstract
In this paper, the electronic properties of 30° twisted double bilayer graphene, which loses the translational symmetry due to the incommensurate twist angle, are studied by means of the tight-binding approximation. We demonstrate the interlayer decoupling in the low-energy region from various electronic properties, such as the density of states, effective band structure, optical conductivity and Landau level spectrum. However, at Q points, the interlayer coupling results in the appearance of new Van Hove singularities in the density of states, new peaks in the optical conductivity and importantly the 12-fold-symmetry-like electronic states. The k-space tight-binding method is adopted to explain this phenomenon. The electronic states at Q points show the charge distribution patterns more complex than the 30° twisted bilayer graphene due to the symmetry decrease. These phenomena appear also in the 30° twisted interface between graphene monolayer and AB stacked bilayer.
