Structural and electronic signatures of strain-tunable marginally twisted bilayer graphene

Pei Ouyang, Jiawei Yu, Qian Li +11

Marginally twisted bilayer graphene having small twist angles is predicted to exhibit unique structural and electronic properties, though experimental characterization remains limi…

Giant Rashba splitting in PtTe/PtTe heterostructure

Runfa Feng, Yang Zhang, Jiaheng Li +11

Achieving a large spin splitting is highly desirable for spintronic devices, which often requires breaking of the inversion symmetry. However, many atomically thin films are centro…

Correlated topological flat bands in rhombohedral graphite

Hongyun Zhang, Qian Li, Michael G. Scheer +22

Flat bands and nontrivial topological physics are two important topics of condensed matter physics. With a unique stacking configuration analogous to the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH)…

Strain and twist angle driven electronic structure evolution in twisted bilayer graphene

Jiawei Yu, Guihao Jia, Qian Li +14

In twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) devices, local strains frequently coexist and intertwine with the twist-angle-dependent moiré superlattice, significantly influencing the electron…

Coexistence of extended flat band and Kekulé order in Li-intercalated graphene

Changhua Bao, Hongyun Zhang, Xi Wu +6

Doping graphene near the 1/4 filling to shift the extended flat band and van Hove singularity below E has been highly desirable. Here we report the experimental observation of…
