Moiréless correlations in ABCA graphene

Abstract

Micrometer-sized uniform four-layer (ABCA) rhombohedral graphene is realized by introducing a small twist angle between two bilayers of Bernal graphene. By means of scanning tunneling spectroscopy we observe an extremely sharp van Hove singularity of 3–5-meV half-width and a correlated many-body gap of 9.5 meV at neutrality, thus making small twisted double-bilayer graphene a unique platform to realize electronic correlations in the absence of a moiré potential. Furthermore, ABCA graphene domain walls display tunable topological edge states, of great interest in Floquet engineering.
