Transport through a network of topological states in twisted bilayer graphene


Abstract in English

We explore a network of electronic quantum valley Hall (QVH) states in the moire crystal of minimally twisted bilayer graphene. In our transport measurements we observe Fabry-Perot and Aharanov-Bohm oscillations which are robust in magnetic fields ranging from 0 to 8T, in strong contrast to more conventional 2D systems where trajectories in the bulk are bent by the Lorentz force. This persistence in magnetic field and the linear spacing in density indicate that charge carriers in the bulk flow in topologically protected, one dimensional channels. With this work we demonstrate coherent electronic transport in a lattice of topologically protected states.
