Physicists create tunable superconductivity in twisted graphene “nanosandwich” – MIT News
MIT physicists have created tunable superconductivity in “magic-angle” trilayer graphene. The structure may reveal conditions necessary for high-temperature superconductivity….
When two sheets of graphene are stacked atop each other at just the right angle, the layered structure morphs into an unconventional superconductor, allowing electric currents to pass through without resistance or wasted energy.
This magic-angle transformation in bilayer graphene was observed for the first time in 2018 in the group of Pablo Jarillo-Herrero, the Cecil and Ida Green Professor of Physics at MIT. Since then, scientists have searched for other materials that can be similarly twisted…
