Uncovering the spin-valley order of correlated phases in magic-angle graphene - LivestreamThe twist angle between adjacent two-dimensional layers provides a powerful tuning knob to tailor electronic properties. One archetypal example is magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG), whose flat low-energy bands host a variety of broken-symmetry ground states. However, despite intensive effort, the spin and valley order of these phases and their ...
