Illustration of a moiré pattern that emerges upon stacking and rotating two sheets of bilayer graphene. Correlated electronic states with magnetic ordering emerge in twisted double bilayer graphene ...

What began as a curiosity about rotated graphene layers has turned into a global effort to map out a new landscape of “magic” angles, moiré patterns, and unconventional superconductivity. I see this ...

Superconducting materials are similar to the carpool lane in a congested interstate. Like commuters who ride together, electrons that pair up can bypass the regular traffic, moving through the ...

Magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG) is a graphene-based material with a unique structure, consisting of two graphene sheets layered on top of each other with a misalignment of approximately 1 ...

Findings could open route to new forms of higher-temperature superconductors. (Nanowerk News) Superconductors are like the express trains in a metro system. Any electricity that “boards” a ...

That “magic” angle had long been suspected to be of special interest in twisted bilayer graphene. But no one had predicted it would be that interesting. “It would have been crazy to predict ...

Atomistic configuration of twisted bilayer graphene. Credit: University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Graphene is 200 times stronger than steel and can be as much as six times lighter. These ...

Pablo Jarillo-Herrero tells Hamish Johnston about what happened next after his lab created magic-angle graphene and won the Physics World Breakthrough of the Year award in 2018 Latest twist Pablo ...

Physicists measured how readily a current of electron pairs flows through 'magic-angle' graphene, a major step toward understanding how this unusual material superconducts. By determining how readily ...

Physicists use a new platform to measure magic-angle graphene’s superconducting gap. The method involves “tunneling” electrons between two layers of magic-angle twisted tri-layer graphene (in yellow) ...
