Semimetallic and semiconducting graphene-hBN multilayers with parallel or reverse stacking
arXiv:2210.16393 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.107.125402
Abstract
We theoretically investigate 3D layered crystals of alternating graphene and hBN layers with different symmetries. Depending on the hopping parameters between the graphene layers, we find that these synthetic 3D materials can feature semimetallic, gapped, or Weyl semimetal phases. Our results demonstrate that 3D crystals stacked from individual 2D materials represent a synthetic materials class with emergent properties different from their constituents.
