摘要:

魔角扭曲双层石墨烯(MATBG)在其平带的部分填充时存在大量强关联态。在磁场中,这些平带会进一步演化为经强库仑相互作用重整化的独特霍夫施塔特谱。本文研究了超洁净MATBG器件拓扑磁子带内自发形成的相互作用霍夫施塔特态,其中显著包括对称破缺陈绝缘体(SBCI)态和分数量子霍尔(FQH)态。观测到的SBCI态形成级联,其陈数模仿主序列关联陈绝缘体。MATBG中的FQH态按 Jain 序列形成;但它们在高磁场下消失,与随磁场增强而变强的常规FQH态不同。我们揭示了从复合费米子相到耗散费米液体的独特磁场驱动相变。对承载FQH态的磁子带的理论分析预测,其量子几何性质不均匀且远离最低朗道能级。这表明这些FQH态可更自然地解释为磁子带的场内分数量子陈绝缘体。

英文摘要:

Magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG) hosts a multitude of strongly correlated states at partial fillings of its flat bands. In a magnetic field, these flat bands further evolve into a unique Hofstadter spectrum renormalized by strong Coulomb interactions. Here, we study the interacting Hofstadter states spontaneously formed within the topological magnetic subbands of an ultraclean MATBG device, notably including symmetry-broken Chern insulator (SBCI) states and fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states. The observed SBCI states form a cascade with their Chern numbers mimicking the main sequence correlated Chern insulators. The FQH states in MATBG form in Jain sequence; however, they disappear at high magnetic field, distinct from conventional FQH states which strengthen with increasing magnetic field. We reveal a unique magnetic field-driven phase transition from composite fermion phases to a dissipative Fermi liquid. Our theoretical analysis of the magnetic subbands hosting FQH states predicts non uniform quantum geometric properties far from the lowest Landau level. This points towards a more natural interpretation of these FQH states as in-field fractional Chern insulators of the magnetic subbands.
