摘要:

研究了均匀磁场中扭曲双层石墨烯的能谱和量子霍尔效应。我们研究了两种不同的安排,AB-AB和AB-BA,不同的相对取向,但有非常相似的能带结构在没有磁场。对于每一个系统,我们计算的能量谱和量子化霍尔电导率在每个光谱间隙通过使用一个连续的哈密顿量,满足磁平移条件。结果表明,尽管AB-AB和AB-BA堆叠的零磁场能带结构非常相似,但它们的Hofstadter蝶形谱却有很大的不同; AB-AB堆叠的谱具有谷简并性,可以通过施加层间势不对称性来提升,而AB-BA堆叠的谱在任何情况下都没有这种简并性.我们从晶格对称性和能带拓扑的角度解释了这种差异的原因。

英文摘要:

We study the energy spectrum and quantum Hall effects of the twisted double bilayer graphene in uniform magnetic field. We investigate two different arrangements, AB-AB and AB-BA, which differ in the relative orientation but have very similar band structures in the absence of a magnetic field. For each system, we calculate the energy spectrum and quantized Hall conductivities at each spectral gap by using a continuum Hamiltonian that satisfies the magneto-translation condition. We show that the Hofstadter butterfly spectra of AB-AB and AB-BA stackings differ significantly, even though their zero magnetic field band structures closely resemble; the spectrum of AB-AB has valley degeneracy, which can be lifted by applying interlayer potential asymmetry, while the spectrum of AB-BA has no such degeneracy in any case. We explain the origin of the difference from the perspectives of lattice symmetry and band topology.
