We report pronounced magnetoconductance oscillations observed on suspended bilayer and trilayer graphene devices with mobilities up to 270,000 cm2/Vs. For bilayer devices, we observe conductance minima at all integer filling factors nu between 0 and -8, as well as a small plateau at { u}=1/3. For trilayer devices, we observe features at nu=-1, -2, -3 and -4, and at { u}~0.5 that persist to 4.5K at B=8T. All of these features persist for all accessible values of Vg and B, and could suggest the onset of symmetry breaking of the first few Landau (LL) levels and fractional quantum Hall states.

We report electrical transport measurements on a suspended ultra-low-disorder graphene nanoribbon(GNR) with nearly atomically smooth edges that reveal a high mobility exceeding 3000 cm2 V-1 s-1 and an intrinsic band gap. The experimentally derived ba ndgap is in quantitative agreement with the results of our electronic-structure calculations on chiral GNRs with comparable width taking into account the electron-electron interactions, indicating that the origin of the bandgap in non-armchair GNRs is partially due to the magnetic zigzag edges.
We present a fabrication process for high quality suspended and double gated trilayer graphene devices. The electrical transport measurements in these transistors reveal a high charge carrier mobility (higher than 20000 cm^2/Vs) and ballistic electri c transport on a scale larger than 200nm. We report a particularly large on/off ratio of the current in ABC-stacked trilayers, up to 250 for an average electric displacement of -0.08 V/nm, compatible with an electric field induced energy gap. The high quality of these devices is also demonstrated by the appearance of quantum Hall plateaus at magnetic fields as low as 500mT.
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 study the symmetries of twisted trilayer graphenes band structure under various extrinsic perturbations, and analyze the role of long-range electron-electron interactions near the first magic angle. The electronic structure is modified by these in teractions in a similar way to twisted bilayer graphene. We analyze electron pairing due to long-wavelength charge fluctuations, which are coupled among themselves via the Coulomb interaction and additionally mediated by longitudinal acoustic phonons. We find superconducting phases with either spin singlet/valley triplet or spin triplet/valley singlet symmetry, with critical temperatures of up to a few Kelvin for realistic choices of parameters.
We propose use of disorder to produce a field effect transistor (FET) in biased bilayer and trilayer graphene. Modulation of the bias voltage can produce large variations in the conductance when the disorders effects are confined to only one of the g raphene layers. This effect is based on the bias voltages ability to select which of the graphene layers carries current, and is not tied to the presence of a gap in the density of states. In particular, we demonstrate this effect in models of gapless ABA-stacked trilayer graphene, gapped ABC-stacked trilayer graphene, and gapped bilayer graphene.
