Using transport measurements, we investigate multicomponent quantum Hall (QH) ferromagnetism in dual-gated rhombohedral trilayer graphene (r-TLG), in which the real spin, orbital pseudospin and layer pseudospins of the lowest Landau level form spontaneous ordering. We observe intermediate quantum Hall plateaus, indicating a complete lifting of the degeneracy of the zeroth Landau level (LL) in the hole-doped regime. In charge neutral r-TLG, the orbital degeneracy is broken first, and the layer degeneracy is broken last and only the in presence of an interlayer potential U. In the phase space of U and filling factor, we observe an intriguing hexagon pattern, which is accounted for by a model based on crossings between symmetry-broken LLs.

We report the observation of superconductivity in rhombohedral trilayer graphene electrostatically doped with holes. Superconductivity occurs in two distinct regions within the space of gate-tuned charge carrier density and applied electric displacem
ent field, which we denote SC1 and SC2. The high sample quality allows for detailed mapping of the normal state Fermi surfaces by quantum oscillations, which reveal that in both cases superconductivity arises from a normal state described by an annular Fermi sea that is proximal to an isospin symmetry breaking transition where the Fermi surface degeneracy changes. The upper out-of-plane critical field $B_{Cperp}approx 10 mathrm{mT}$ for SC1 and $1mathrm{mT}$ for SC2, implying coherence lengths $xi$ of 200nm and 600nm, respectively. The simultaneous observation of transverse magnetic electron focusing implies a mean free path $ellgtrsim3.5mathrm{mu m}$. Superconductivity is thus deep in the clean limit, with the disorder parameter $d=xi/ell<0.1$. SC1 emerge from a paramagnetic normal state and is suppressed with in-plane magnetic fields in agreement with the Pauli paramagnetic limit. In contrast, SC2 emerges from a spin-polarized, valley-unpolarized half-metal. Measurements of the in-plane critical field show that this superconductor exceeds the Pauli limit by at least one order of magnitude. We discuss our results in light of several mechanisms including conventional phonon-mediated pairing, pairing due to fluctuations of the proximal isospin order, and intrinsic instabilities of the annular Fermi liquid. Our observation of superconductivity in a clean and structurally simple two-dimensional metal hosting a variety of gate tuned magnetic states may enable a new class of field-effect controlled mesoscopic electronic devices combining correlated electron phenomena.
We report observation of the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) in high mobility multi-terminal graphene devices, fabricated on a single crystal boron nitride substrate. We observe an unexpected hierarchy in the emergent FQHE states that may be ex
plained by strongly interacting composite Fermions with full SU(4) symmetric underlying degrees of freedom. The FQHE gaps are measured from temperature dependent transport to be up 10 times larger than in any other semiconductor system. The remarkable strength and unusual hierarcy of the FQHE described here provides a unique opportunity to probe correlated behavior in the presence of expanded quantum degrees of freedom.
The sequence of the zeroth Landau levels (LLs) between filling factors $ u$=-6 to 6 in ABA-stacked trilayer graphene (TLG) is unknown because it depends sensitively on the non-uniform charge distribution on the three layers of ABA-stacked TLG. Using
the sensitivity of quantum Hall data on the electric field and magnetic field, in an ultraclean ABA-stacked TLG sample, we quantitatively estimate the non-uniformity of the electric field and determine the sequence of the zeroth LLs. We also observe anticrossings between some LLs differing by 3 in LL index, which result from the breaking of the continuous rotational to textit{C}$_3$ symmetry by the trigonal warping.
Magneto-transport experiments on ABC-stacked suspended trilayer graphene reveal a complete splitting of the twelve-fold degenerated lowest Landau level, and, in particular, the opening of an exchange-driven gap at the charge neutrality point. A quant
itative analysis of distinctness of the quantum Hall plateaus as a function of field yields a hierarchy of the filling factors: u=6, 4, and 0 are the most pronounced, followed by u=3, and finally u=1, 2 and 5. Apart from the appearance of a u=4 state, which is probably caused by a layer asymmetry, this sequence is in agreement with Hunds rules for ABC-stacked trilayer graphene.
In a graphene Landau level (LL), strong Coulomb interactions and the fourfold spin/valley degeneracy lead to an approximate SU(4) isospin symmetry. At partial filling, exchange interactions can spontaneously break this symmetry, manifesting as additi
onal integer quantum Hall plateaus outside the normal sequence. Here we report the observation of a large number of these quantum Hall isospin ferromagnetic (QHIFM) states, which we classify according to their real spin structure using temperature-dependent tilted field magnetotransport. The large measured activation gaps confirm the Coulomb origin of the broken symmetry states, but the order is strongly dependent on LL index. In the high energy LLs, the Zeeman effect is the dominant aligning field, leading to real spin ferromagnets with Skyrmionic excitations at half filling, whereas in the `relativistic zero energy LL, lattice scale anisotropies drive the system to a spin unpolarized state, likely a charge- or spin-density wave.
