Revealing quantum geometry effects in magic angle twisted bilayer graphene using the circular photogalvanic effect

Eylon Persky, Leonie Parisot, Minhao He +7

We report a photocurrent studies of a magic angle twisted bilayer graphene device using near infrared light. Through photocurrent imaging and polarization dependence, we separate t…

Straintronics and twistronics in bilayer graphene

Federico Escudero, Dong Wang, Pierre A. Pantaleón +3

The interplay of twist and strain in bilayer graphene enables the formation of moiré patterns and narrow bands that host correlated and topological phases. While magic-angle twist…

Twistraintronics in Square Moire Superlattices of Stacked Graphene Layers

Roberto Carrasco, Federico Escudero, Zhen Zhan +6

We report the first observation of controlled, strain-induced square moire patterns in stacked graphene. By selectively displacing native wrinkles, we drive a reversible transition…
