Molecular pairing in twisted bilayer graphene superconductivity

YJ Wang, GD Zhou, SY Peng, B Lian, ZD Song - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
We propose a theory for how the weak phonon-mediated interaction (JA= 1–4 meV) wins
over the prohibitive Coulomb repulsion (U= 30–60 meV) and leads to a superconductor in …

A microscopic perspective on moiré materials

KP Nuckolls, A Yazdani - Nature Reviews Materials, 2024 - nature.com
Contemporary quantum materials research is guided by themes of topology and electronic
correlations. A confluence of these two themes is engineered in moiré materials, an …

Coulomb-driven band unflattening suppresses -phonon pairing in moiré graphene

G Wagner, YH Kwan, N Bultinck, SH Simon… - Physical Review B, 2024 - APS
It is a matter of current debate whether the gate-tunable superconductivity in twisted bilayer
graphene is phonon mediated or arises from electron-electron interactions. The recent …
