扭曲双层石墨烯超流重的几何和常规贡献

Geometric and conventional contribution to superfluid weight in twisted bilayer graphene

Xiang Hu, Timo Hyart, Dmitry I. Pikulin, Enrico Rossi

摘要:

通过将石墨烯层之间的角度调整到特定的“魔角”,可以使扭曲双层石墨烯(TBLG)的最低能带平坦。带的平坦性质有利于集体基态的形成,特别是TBLG已被证明支持超导性。当参与超导性的能带被很好地隔离时,超流重量与这些能带的有效质量成反比。因此,对于平带系统,人们可以得出结论,即使存在超导配对,超导态的大多数特征也应该不存在。这一结论与TBLG的实验观察不一致。我们计算了TBLG的超流重量,同时考虑到传统的贡献和贡献所产生的量子几何的带。我们发现,这两个贡献是大于一个将预期治疗的频带隔离良好,在魔角的几何贡献大于传统的,并为小偏差远离魔角的传统贡献大于几何的。我们的研究结果表明,尽管带的平坦的超流的重量在TBLG是有限的,并与实验观察一致。我们还展示了如何通过改变化学势和扭转角来调整超流重量,从而打开了调整标准BCS过渡和Berezinskiii-Kosterlitz-Bronchless过渡之间的超导过渡性质的可能性。

英文摘要:

By tuning the angle between graphene layers to specific "magic angles" the lowest energy bands of twisted bilayer graphene (TBLG) can be made flat. The flat nature of the bands favors the formation of collective ground states and, in particular, TBLG has been shown to support superconductivity. When the energy bands participating in the superconductivity are well-isolated, the superfluid weight scales inversely with the effective mass of such bands. For flat-band systems one would therefore conclude that even if superconducting pairing is present most of the signatures of the superconducting state should be absent. This conclusion is at odds with the experimental observations for TBLG. We calculate the superfluid weight for TBLG taking into account both the conventional contribution and the contribution arising from the quantum geometry of the bands. We find that both contributions are larger than one would expect treating the bands as well-isolated, that at the magic angle the geometric contribution is larger than the conventional one, and that for small deviations away from the magic angle the conventional contribution is larger than the geometric one. Our results show that, despite the flatness of the bands the superfluid weight in TBLG is finite and consistent with experimental observations. We also show how the superfluid weight can be tuned by varying the chemical potential and the twist angle opening the possibility to tune the nature of the superconducting transition between the standard BCS transition and the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition.
