主 题:flat bands twisted trilayer graphene lattice relaxation mirror symmetry magnetic field tight-binding
摘 要:Twisted graphene multilayers exhibit strongly correlated insulating states and superconductivity due to the presence of ultraflat bands near the charge neutral *** this paper,the response of ultraflat bands to lattice relaxation and a magnetic field in twisted trilayer graphene(tTLG)with different stacking arrangements is investigated by using a full tight-binding *** show that lattice relaxations are indispensable for understanding the electronic properties of tTLG,in particular,of tTLG in the presence of mirror *** relaxations renormalize the quasiparticle spectrum near the Fermi energy and change the localization of higher energy flat ***,different from the twisted bilayer graphene,the Hofstadter butterfly spectrum can be realized at laboratory accessible strengths of magnetic *** work verifies tTLG as a more tunable platform than the twisted bilayer graphene in strongly correlated phenomena.
