Graphene Bilayer with a Twist: Electronic Structure

Open access

Abstract

We consider a graphene bilayer with a relative small angle rotation between the layers--a stacking defect often seen in the surface of graphite--and calculate the electronic structure near zero energy in a continuum approximation. Contrary to what happens in an AB stacked bilayer and in accord with observations in epitaxial graphene, we find: (a) the low energy dispersion is linear, as in a single layer, but the Fermi velocity can be significantly smaller than the single-layer value; (b) an external electric field, perpendicular to the layers, does not open an electronic gap.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
