Effective Landau Level Diagram of Bilayer Graphene

arXiv:1708.03644 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.120.047701

Abstract

The $E = 0$ octet of bilayer graphene in the filling factor range of -4 < $ν$ < 4 is a fertile playground for many-body phenomena, yet a Landau level diagram is missing due to strong interactions and competing quantum degrees of freedom. We combine measurements and modeling to construct an empirical and quantitative spectrum. The single-particle-like diagram incorporates interaction effects effectively and provides a unified framework to understand the occupation sequence, gap energies and phase transitions observed in the octet. It serves as a new starting point for more sophisticated calculations and experiments.
