Electron-Phonon Coupling in a Magic-Angle...

The importance of phonons in the strong correlation phenomena observed in twisted-bilayer graphene (TBG) at the so-called magic-angle is under debate. Here a gate-dependent micro-Raman spectroscopy to monitor the G band line width was applied in TBG devices of twist angles θ = 0° (Bernal),...
