We consider resonant scatterers with large scattering cross-sections in graphene that are produced by a gated disk or a vacancy, and show that a gated ring can be engineered to produce an efficient electron cloak. We also demonstrate that this same scheme can be applied to tune the direction of electron flow. Our analysis is based on a partial-wave expansion of the electronic wave-functions in the continuum approximation, described by the Dirac equation. Using a symmetrized version of the massless Dirac equation, we derive a general condition for the cloaking of a scatterer by a potential with radial symmetry. We also perform tight-binding calculations to show that our findings are robust against the presence of disorder in the gate potential.

Controlling energy flows in solids through switchable electron-lattice cooling can grant access to a range of interesting and potentially useful energy transport phenomena. Here we discuss a unique switchable electron-lattice cooling mechanism arisin
g in graphene due to phonon emission mediated by resonant scattering on defects in crystal lattice, which displays interesting analogy to the Purcell effect in optics. This mechanism strongly enhances the electron-phonon cooling rate, since non-equilibrium carriers in the presence of momentum recoil due to disorder can access a larger phonon phase space and emit phonons more effciently. Resonant energy dependence of phonon emission translates into gate-tunable cooling rates, exhibiting giant enhancement of cooling occurring when the carrier energy is aligned with the electron resonance of the defect.
We present a hydrodynamic theory for electron-hole magnetotransport in graphene incorporating carrier-population imbalance, energy, and momentum relaxation processes. We focus on the electric response and find that the carrier and energy imbalance re
laxation processes strongly modify the shear viscosity, so that an effective viscosity can be negative in the vicinity of charge neutrality. We predict an emergent eddy flow pattern of swirling currents and explore its manifestation in nonlocal resistivity oscillations in a strip of graphene driven by a source current.
The ability to control the strength of interaction is essential for studying quantum phenomena emerging from a system of correlated fermions. For example, the isotope effect illustrates the effect of electron-phonon coupling on superconductivity, pro
viding an important experimental support for the BCS theory. In this work, we report a new device geometry where the magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (tBLG) is placed in close proximity to a Bernal bilayer graphene (BLG) separated by a 3 nm thick barrier. Using charge screening from the Bernal bilayer, the strength of electron-electron Coulomb interaction within the twisted bilayer can be continuously tuned. Transport measurements show that tuning Coulomb screening has opposite effect on the insulating and superconducting states: as Coulomb interaction is weakened by screening, the insulating states become less robust, whereas the stability of superconductivity is enhanced. Out results demonstrate the ability to directly probe the role of Coulomb interaction in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene. Most importantly, the effect of Coulomb screening points toward electron-phonon coupling as the dominant mechanism for Cooper pair formation, and therefore superconductivity, in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene.
Electron-electron (e-e) collisions can impact transport in a variety of surprising and sometimes counterintuitive ways. Despite strong interest, experiments on the subject proved challenging because of the simultaneous presence of different scatterin
g mechanisms that suppress or obscure consequences of e-e scattering. Only recently, sufficiently clean electron systems with transport dominated by e-e collisions have become available, showing behavior characteristic of highly viscous fluids. Here we study electron transport through graphene constrictions and show that their conductance below 150 K increases with increasing temperature, in stark contrast to the metallic character of doped graphene. Notably, the measured conductance exceeds the maximum conductance possible for free electrons. This anomalous behavior is attributed to collective movement of interacting electrons, which shields individual carriers from momentum loss at sample boundaries. The measurements allow us to identify the conductance contribution arising due to electron viscosity and determine its temperature dependence. Besides fundamental interest, our work shows that viscous effects can facilitate high-mobility transport at elevated temperatures, a potentially useful behavior for designing graphene-based devices.
