Origin of van Hove singularities in twisted bilayer …

2015-8-1 · 1. Introduction. Twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) is a bilayer graphene sample where the two constitutive layers are rotated by the twisting angle θ TW with respect to each other. For some specific twisting angles θ TW, we can have a commensurate superlattice, and the superlattice unit cell size T TW is denoted by two integers (n, m).However, for a general twisting angle, a quasi-periodic ...

[PDF] Extended van Hove singularity and …

2020-12-4 · We have investigated the effects of doping on a single layer of graphene using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. We show that many-body interactions severely warp the Fermi surface, leading to an extended van Hove singularity (EVHS) at the graphene M point. The ground state properties of graphene with such an EVHS are calculated, analyzing the competition between a …

Scanning tunneling spectroscopy studies of angle …

2019-3-18 · Slightly misoriented surface graphene layer on highly ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) can result in Moiré patterns (MP). Two van Hove singularity (VHS) peaks in the density of states are observed with scanning tunneling spectroscopy on a series of the MPs with different periods on HOPG surface, flanking the Fermi energy. The energy difference between the two VHS peaks (ΔE VHS) is linearly ...

2020-2-4 · It has now been over a decade since the publication of the theoretical works of S. A. Mikhailov on the low-frequency (intraband) nonlinear response of the monolayer of graphene to an external electric field [1, 2], which marked the birth of the study of nonlinear optical (NLO) responses in two-dimensional materials.In the past ten years, this area has become increasingly active and diverse, as ...

Semiclassical Analysis of Landau levels Near the van …

We investigate the energy spectrum for electrons in twisted bilayer graphene in the presence of a weak magnetic field. Twisted bilayers host Dirac points from each layer that are near one another in the Brillouin zone, and are coupled through low energy saddle points. In the absence of a field these lead to a low energy van Hove singularity in the density of states.

Observation of Van Hove singularities in twisted …

We demonstrate that a rotation between stacked graphene layers can generate Van Hove singularities, which can be brought arbitrarily close to the Fermi energy by varying the angle of rotation. This opens intriguing prospects for Van Hove singularity engineering of …

Observation of Van Hove singularities in twisted …

In the case of single-layer graphene, the singularity is too far from the Fermi energy6 and hence difficult to reach with standard doping and gating techniques7. Here we report the observation of low-energy Van Hove singularities in twisted graphene layers seen as two pronounced peaks in the density of states measured by scanning tunnelling ...

At very high doping levels the van Hove singularity in the π^{*} band of graphene becomes occupied and exotic ground states possibly emerge, driven by many-body interactions. Employing a combination of ytterbium intercalation and potassium adsorption, we n dope epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide past the π^{*} van Hove singularity, up to a ...

This strong peak in the graphene DOS is, first of all, promising for the application of this system in high on/off ratio graphene-based transistors ().Because this extremely flattened band forms a strong 2D-extended van Hove singularity and we find indications of enhanced electron ...
