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 ...

Spin-orbit coupling in graphene layers gives rise to surprising physics, including ferromagnetism. (Courtesy: Li Lab / Brown University) Magnetism and superconductivity are usually at opposite ends of ...

They don’t call graphene a “wonder material” for nothing – it’s ultra-thin, ultra-strong, and has some weird electrical properties. MIT researchers previously found a particularly strange pattern ...

Twisting again: magic-angle bilayer graphene. Courtesy: Pablo Jarillo-Herrero Two years ago a team of researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the US kicked off the field of ...

(Nanowerk News) 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 ...

Physicists have found a new way to switch superconductivity on and off in magic-angle graphene. The discovery could lead to ultrafast, energy-efficient superconducting transistors for 'neuromorphic' ...

Graphene just keeps getting weirder. Engineers at ETH Zurich have now managed to tweak the overachieving material so that some parts of a flake can be an electrical insulator while other areas act as ...

A well-configured solution is essential to completing solid-state NMR experiments effectively. The magic angle setting is a crucial factor in a magic angle spinning (MAS) probe, pivotal for achieving ...

In spring 2018, the surprising discovery of superconductivity in a new material set the scientific community abuzz. Built by layering one carbon sheet atop another and twisting the top one at a "magic ...

A team of researchers develop a set of entirely novel knobs to control correlated electrons and demonstrate that superconductivity can exist without insulating phases in Magic Angle Twisted Bi-layer ...
