Many-body effects, orbital mixing and cyclotron resonance in bilayer graphene

Abstract

In a magnetic field bilayer graphene supports, at the lowest Landau level, eight characteristic zero-energy levels with an extra twofold degeneracy in Landau orbitals $n=\{0,1\}$. They, under general one-body and many-body interactions, evolve into pseudo-zero-mode (PZM) levels. A close look is made into the detailed structure and characteristics of such PZM levels and cyclotron resonance they host, with full account taken of spin splitting, interlayer bias, weak electron-hole asymmetry and Coulomb interactions. It is pointed out that the PZM levels generally undergo orbital level mixing (in one valley or both valleys) as they are gradually filled with electrons and that an observation of interband cyclotron resonance over a finite range of filling provides a direct and sensitive probe for exploring many-body effects and orbital mixing in bilayer graphene.
