Anomalous metal and superconducting phases in rhombohedral graphene

Anna Okounkova, Abigail Sohm, Tobias Faehndrich +7

Two-dimensional superconductivity is now well established in graphene-based systems, with many such realizations showing evidence for unconventional pairing. Yet in several of the…

Microwave Imaging of Edge Conductivity in Graphene at Charge Neutrality and Quantum Hall States

Hongtao Yan, Chun-Chih Tseng, Anzhuoer Li +8

We report local conductivity imaging of edge states in monolayer graphene by millikelvin microwave impedance microscopy (MIM). At the charge-neutrality point, as the magnetic field…

Pervasive spin-triplet superconductivity in rhombohedral graphene

Manish Kumar, Derek Waleffe, Anna Okounkova +6

Magnetic fields typically suppress superconductivity once the Zeeman energy exceeds the pairing gap, unless mechanisms such as unconventional pairing, strong spin-orbit coupling, o…

Entanglement entropy as a probe of topological phase transitions

Manish Kumar, Bharadwaj Vedula, Suhas Gangadharaiah +1

Entanglement entropy (EE) provides a powerful probe of quantum phases, yet its role in identifying topological phase transitions in disordered systems remains underexplored. We int…

Superconductivity from dual-surface carriers in rhombohedral graphene

Manish Kumar, Derek Waleffe, Anna Okounkova +7

Intrinsic rhombohedral graphene hosts an unusual low-energy electronic wavefunction, predominantly localized at its outer crystal faces with negligible presence in the bulk. Increa…
