Quantum capacitance of electrolyte-gated bilayer graphene field-effect transistors is investigated in this paper. Bilayer graphene has received huge attention due to the fact that an energy gap could be opened by chemical doping or by applying external perpendicular electric field. So, this extraordinary property can be exploited to use bilayer graphene as a channel in electrolyte-gated field-effect transistors. The quantum capacitance of bi-layer graphene with an equivalent circuit is presented, and also based on the analytical model a numerical solution is reported. We begin by modeling the DOS, followed by carrier concentration as a functionVin degenerate and nondegenerate regimes. To further confirm this viewpoint, the presented analytical model is compared with experimental data, and acceptable agreement is reported.

Twisted Bilayer Graphene

The emergence of flat bands and correlated behaviors in “magic angle” twisted bilayer graphene (tBLG) has sparked tremendous interest, though its many aspects are under intense debate. Here we report observation of both superconductivity and the Mott-like insulating state in a tBLG device with a twist angle of ~0.93°, which is smaller than the magic angle by 15%. At an electron concentration of ±5 electrons/moiré unit cell, we observe a narrow resistance peak with an activation energy gap ~0.1 meV. This indicates additional correlated insulating state, and is consistent with theory predicting a high-energy flat band. At doping of ±12 electrons/moiré unit cell we observe resistance peaks arising from the Dirac points in the spectrum. Our results reveal that the “magic” range of tBLG is in fact larger than what is previously expected, and provide a wealth of new information to help decipher the strongly correlated phenomena observed in tBLG.

Twisted Bilayer Graphene

A model of twisted bilayer graphene has been offered on the base of developed quasi-relativistic approach with high energy [Formula: see text]-Hamiltonian. Monolayer-graphene twist is accounted as a perturbation of monolayer-graphene Hamiltonian in such a way that at a given point of the Brillouin zone there exists an external non-Abelian gauge field of another monolayer. Majorana-like resonances have been revealed in the band structure of model at a magic rotation angle [Formula: see text]. The simulations have also shown that a superlattice energy gap existing at a rotation angle [Formula: see text] vanishes at a rotation angle [Formula: see text].

Site Dependence

In bilayer graphene, the A and B sites in each layer have different local electronic structures due to the presence of the second layer. In this work, using first-principles calculations, we examine the effect of sublattice inequivalence on various properties of hydrogen defects in bilayer graphene. Density functional calculations show that induced magnetic moments by H adsorption on A and B sites of bilayer graphene are both equal to [Formula: see text] at zero temperature, but change slightly and develop a mismatch at finite temperature. We show how this variation follows from the fact that H on A site remains gapless but H on B site opens an energy gap. We also use a tight-binding model to explain the differences in band structures for H adsorption on A and B sites. The results obtained in this work suggest that there are important differences in electronic and magnetic properties between H adsorption on monolayer and bilayer graphene.
