Moiré is Different: Wigner Solidification at Magic Angles in Doped Twisted bi-layer Graphene

Event End:

Event Information:
In a recent paper, the MIT group led Pablo Jarillo-Herrero has found that doping twisted bi-layer graphene can generate strongly correlated insulating states and superconductivity at particular twist angles called magic angles.
This problem has excited the condensed matter community because it establishes that graphene, normally viewed as a weakly interacting system, is a new platform for strongly correlated physics.
