It has recently been shown that superconductivity in magic-angle twisted trilayer graphene survives to in-plane magnetic fields that are well in excess of the Pauli limit, and much stronger than the in-plane critical magnetic fields of magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene. The difference is surprising because twisted bilayers and trilayers both support the magic-angle flat bands thought to be the fountainhead of twisted graphene superconductivity. We show here that the difference in critical magnetic fields can be traced to a $mathcal{C}_2 mathcal{M}_{h}$ symmetry in trilayers that survives in-plane magnetic fields, and also relative displacements between top and bottom layers that are not under experimental control at present. An gate electric field breaks the $mathcal{C}_2 mathcal{M}_{h}$ symmetry and therefore limits the in-plane critical magnetic field.

A purely electronic mechanism is proposed for the unconventional superconductivity recently observed in twisted bilayer graphene (tBG) close to the magic angle. Using the Migdal-Eliashberg framework on a one parameter effective lattice model for tBG
we show that a superconducting state can be achieved by means of collective electronic modes in tBG. We posit robust features of the theory, including an asymmetrical superconducting dome and the magnitude of the critical temperature that are in agreement with experiments.
Magic-angle twisted trilayer graphene (MATTG) recently emerged as a highly tunable platform for studying correlated phases of matter, such as correlated insulators and superconductivity. Superconductivity occurs in a range of doping levels that is bo
unded by van Hove singularities which stimulates the debate of the origin and nature of superconductivity in this material. In this work, we discuss the role of spin-fluctuations arising from atomic-scale correlations in MATTG for the superconducting state. We show that in a phase diagram as function of doping ($ u$) and temperature, nematic superconducting regions are surrounded by ferromagnetic states and that a superconducting dome with $T_c approx 2,mathrm{K}$ appears between the integer fillings $ u =-2$ and $ u = -3$. Applying a perpendicular electric field enhances superconductivity on the electron-doped side which we relate to changes in the spin-fluctuation spectrum. We show that the nematic unconventional superconductivity leads to pronounced signatures in the local density of states detectable by scanning tunneling spectroscopy measurements.
Recent experimental and theoretical investigations demonstrate that twisted trilayer graphene (tTLG) is a highly tunable platform to study the correlated insulating states, ferromagnetism, and superconducting properties. Here we explore the possibili
ty of tuning electronic correlations of the tTLG via a vertical pressure. A full tight-binding model is used to accurately describe the pressure-dependent interlayer interactions. Our results show that pressure can push a relatively larger twist angle (for instance, $1.89^{circ}$) tTLG to reach the flat-band regime. Next, we obtain the relationship between the pressure-induced magic angle value and the critical pressure. These critical pressure values are almost half of that needed in the case of twisted bilayer graphene. Then, plasmonic properties are further investigated in the flat band tTLG with both zero-pressure magic angle and pressure-induced magic angle. Two plasmonic modes are detected in these two kinds of flat band samples. By comparison, one is a high energy damping-free plasmon mode that shows similar behavior, and the other is a low energy plasmon mode (flat-band plasmon) that shows obvious differences. The flat-band plasmon is contributed by both interband and intraband transitions of flat bands, and its divergence is due to the various shape of the flat bands in tTLG with zero-pressure and pressure-induced magic angles. This may provide an efficient way of tuning between regimes with strong and weak electronic interactions in one sample and overcoming the technical requirement of precise control of the twist angle in the study of correlated physics.
The discovery of magic-angle twisted trilayer graphene (tTLG) adds a new twist to the family of graphene moire. The additional graphene layer unlocks a series of intriguing properties in the superconducting phase, such as the violation of Pauli limit
and re-entrant superconductivity at large in-plane magnetic field. In this work, we integrate magic-angle tTLG into a double-layer structure to study the superconducting phase. Utilizing proximity screening from the adjacent metallic layer, we examine the stability of the superconducting phase and demonstrate that Coulomb repulsion competes against the mechanism underlying Cooper pairing. Furthermore, we use a combination of transport and thermodynamic measurements to probe the isospin order, which shows that the isospin configuration at half moire filling, and for the nearby fermi surface, is spin-polarized and valley-unpolarized. In addition, we show that valley isospin plays a dominating role in the Pomeranchuk effect, whereas the spin degree of freedom is frozen, which indicates small valley isospin stiffness and large spin stiffness in tTLG. Taken together, our findings provide important constraints for theoretical models aiming to understand the nature of superconductivity. A possible scenario is that electron-phonon coupling stabilizes a superconducting phase with a spin-triplet, valley singlet order parameter.
Moire quantum matter has emerged as a novel materials platform where correlated and topological phases can be explored with unprecedented control. Among them, magic-angle systems constructed from two or three layers of graphene have shown robust supe
rconducting phases with unconventional characteristics. However, direct evidence for unconventional pairing remains to be experimentally demonstrated. Here, we show that magic-angle twisted trilayer graphene (MATTG) exhibits superconductivity up to in-plane magnetic fields in excess of 10 T, which represents a large ($2sim3$ times) violation of the Pauli limit for conventional spin-singlet superconductors. This observation is surprising for a system which is not expected to have strong spin-orbit coupling. Furthermore, the Pauli limit violation is observed over the entire superconducting phase, indicating that it is not related to a possible pseudogap phase with large superconducting amplitude pairing. More strikingly, we observe reentrant superconductivity at large magnetic fields, which is present in a narrower range of carrier density and displacement field. These findings suggest that the superconductivity in MATTG is likely driven by a mechanism resulting in non-spin-singlet Cooper pairs, where the external magnetic field can cause transitions between phases with potentially different order parameters. Our results showcase the richness of moire superconductivity and may pave a new route towards designing next-generation exotic quantum matter.
