We study the superlattice minibands produced by the interplay between moire pattern induced by hexagonal BN substrate on graphene layer and the interlayer coupling in bilayer graphene with Bernal stacking (BLG). We compare moire miniband features in BLG, where they are affected by the interlayer asymmetry of BLG-hBN heterostructure and trigonal warping characteristic for electrons in Bernal-stacked bilayers with those found in monolayer graphene.

We calculate the form of quasiparticle interference patterns in bilayer graphene within a low-energy description, taking into account perturbatively the trigonal warping terms. We introduce four different types of impurities localized on the A and B
sublattices of the first and the second layer, and we obtain closed-form analytical expressions both in real and Fourier spaces for the oscillatory corrections to the local density of states generated by the impurities. Finally, we compare our findings with recent experimental and semi-analytical T-matrix results from arXiv:2104.10620 and we show that there is a very good agreement between our findings and the previous results, as well as with the experimental data.
We show that the valley Chern number of the low energy band in twisted double bilayer graphene can be tuned through two successive topological transitions, where the direct bandgap closes, by changing the electric field perpendicular to the plane of
the graphene layers. The two transitions with Chern number changes of -3 and +1 can be explained by the formation of three satellite Dirac points around the central Dirac cone in the moire Brillouin zone due to the presence of trigonal warping. The satellite cones have opposite chirality to the central Dirac cone. Considering the overlap of the bands in energy, which lead to metallic states, we construct the experimentally observable phase diagram of the system in terms of the indirect bandgap and the anomalous valley Hall conductivity. We show that while most of the intermediate phase becomes metallic, there is a narrow parameter regime where the transition through three insulating phases with different quantized valley Hall conductivity can be seen. We systematically study the effects of variations in the model parameters on the phase diagram of the system to reveal the importance of particle-hole asymmetry and trigonal warping in constructing the phase diagram. We also study the effect of changes in interlayer tunneling on this phase diagram.
We present a self-consistent calculation of the interlayer asymmetry in bilayer graphene caused by an applied electric field in magnetic fields. We show how this asymmetry influences the Landau level spectrum in bilayer graphene and the observable in
ter-Landau level transitions when they are studied as a function of high magnetic field at fixed filling factor as measured experimentally by E.A. Henriksen et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 100 (2008), 087403. We also analyze the magneto-optical spectra of bilayer flakes in the photon-energy range corresponding to transitions between degenerate and split bands of bilayers.
The existence of strong trigonal warping around the K point for the low energy electronic states in multilayer (N$geq$2) graphene films and graphite is well established. It is responsible for phenomena such as Lifshitz transitions and anisotropic bal
listic transport. The absolute orientation of the trigonal warping with respect to the center of the Brillouin zone is however not agreed upon. Here, we use quasiparticle scattering experiments on a gated bilayer graphene/hexagonal boron nitride heterostructure to settle this disagreement. We compare Fourier transforms of scattering interference maps acquired at various energies away from the charge neutrality point with tight-binding-based joint density of states simulations. This comparison enables unambiguous determination of the trigonal warping orientation for bilayer graphene low energy states. Our experimental technique is promising for quasi-directly studying fine features of the band structure of gated two-dimensional materials such as topological transitions, interlayer hybridization, and moire minibands.
Due to low dimensionality, the controlled stacking of the graphene films and their electronic properties are susceptible to environmental changes including strain. The strain-induced modification of the electronic properties such as the emergence and
modulation of bandgaps crucially depends on the stacking of the graphene films. However, to date, only the impact of strain on electronic properties of Bernal and AA-stacked bilayer graphene has been extensively investigated in theoretical studies. Exploiting density functional theory and tight-binding calculation, we investigate the impacts of in-plane strain on two different class of commensurate twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) which are even/odd under sublattice exchange (SE) parity. We find that the SE odd TBG remains gapless whereas the bandgap increases for the SE even TBG when applying equibiaxial tensile strain. Moreover, we observe that for extremely large mixed strains both investigated TBG superstructures demonstrate direct-indirect bandgap transition.
