摘要
The twistronics, which is arising from the moire superlattice of the small angle between twisted bilayers of 2D materials like graphene, has attracted much attention in the field of 2D materials and condensed matter physics. The novel physical properties in such systems, like unconventional superconductivity, come from the dispersionless flat band that appears when the twist reaches some magic angles. By tuning the filling of the fourfold degeneracy flat bands, the desired effects are induced due to the strong correlation of the degenerated Bloch electrons. In this article, we review the twistronics in twisted bi- and multi-layer graphene (TBG and TMG), which is formed both by transfer assembly of exfoliated monolayer graphene and epitaxial growth of multilayer graphene on SiC substrates. Starting from a brief history, we then introduce the theory of flat band in TBG. In the following, we focus on the major achievements in this field: (a) van Hove singularities and charge order; (b) superconductivity and Mott insulator in TBG and (c) transport properties in TBG. In the end, we give the perspective of the rising materials system of twistronics, epitaxial multilayer graphene on the SiC.
