By computing the double-resonant Raman scattering cross-section completely from first principles and including electron-electron interaction at the $GW$ level, we unravel the dominant contributions for the double-resonant 2D-mode in bilayer graphene. We show that, in contrast to previous works, the so-called inner processes are dominant and that the 2D-mode lineshape is described by three dominant resonances around the $K$ point. We show that the splitting of the TO phonon branch in $Gamma-K$ direction, as large as 12 cm$^{-1}$ in $GW$ approximation, is of great importance for a thorough description of the 2D-mode lineshape. Finally, we present a method to extract the TO phonon splitting and the splitting of the electronic bands from experimental data.

The line shape of the double-resonant $2D$ Raman mode in bilayer graphene is often considered to be characteristic for a certain laser excitation energy. Here, in a joint experimental and theoretical study, we analyze the dependence of the double-res onant Raman scattering processes in bilayer graphene on the electronic broadening parameter $gamma$. We demonstrate that the ratio between symmetric and anti-symmetric scattering processes sensitively depends on the lifetime of the electronic states, explaining the experimentally observed variation of the complex $2D$-mode line shape.
We report a comprehensive study of the two-phonon inter-valley (2D) Raman mode in graphene monolayers, motivated by recent reports of asymmetric 2D-mode lineshapes in freestanding graphene. For photon energies in the range $1.53 rm eV - 2.71 rm eV$, the 2D-mode Raman response of freestanding samples appears as bimodal, in stark contrast with the Lorentzian approximation that is commonly used for supported monolayers. The transition between the freestanding and supported cases is mimicked by electrostatically doping freestanding graphene at carrier densities above $2times 10^{11} rm cm^{-2}$. This result quantitatively demonstrates that low levels of charging can obscure the intrinsically bimodal 2D-mode lineshape of monolayer graphene, which can be utilized as a signature of a quasi-neutral sample. In pristine freestanding graphene, we observe a broadening of the 2D-mode feature with decreasing photon energy that cannot be rationalized using a simple one-dimensional model based on resonant textit{inner} and textit{outer} processes. This indicates that phonon wavevectors away from the high-symmetry lines of the Brillouin zone must contribute to the 2D-mode, so that a full two-dimensional calculation is required to properly describe multiphonon-resonant Raman processes.
We demonstrate gate-tunable resonant tunneling and negative differential resistance in the interlayer current-voltage characteristics of rotationally aligned double bilayer graphene heterostructures separated by hexagonal boron-nitride (hBN) dielectr ic. An analysis of the heterostructure band alignment using individual layer densities, along with experimentally determined layer chemical potentials indicates that the resonance occurs when the energy bands of the two bilayer graphene are aligned. We discuss the tunneling resistance dependence on the interlayer hBN thickness, as well as the resonance width dependence on mobility and rotational alignment.
The dispersion of phonons and the electronic structure of graphene systems can be obtained experimentally from the double-resonance (DR) Raman features by varying the excitation laser energy. In a previous resonance Raman investigation of graphene, t he electronic structure was analyzed in the framework of the Slonczewski-Weiss-McClure (SWM) model, considering the outer DR process. In this work we analyze the data considering the inner DR process, and obtain SWM parameters that are in better agreement with those obtained from other experimental techniques. This result possibly shows that there is still a fundamental open question concerning the double resonance process in graphene systems.
The band structure of bilayer graphene is tunable by introducing a relative twist angle between the two layers, unlocking exotic phases, such as superconductor and Mott insulator, and providing a fertile ground for new physics. At intermediate twist angles around 10{deg}, highly degenerate electronic transitions hybridize to form excitonic states, a quite unusual phenomenon in a metallic system. We probe the bright exciton mode using resonant Raman scattering measurements to track the evolution of the intensity of the graphene Raman G peak, corresponding to the E2g phonon. By cryogenically cooling the sample, we are able to resolve both the incoming and outgoing resonance in the G peak intensity evolution as a function of excitation energy, a prominent manifestation of the bright exciton serving as the intermediate state in the Raman process. For a sample with twist angle 8.6{deg}, we report a weakly temperature dependent resonance broadening ${gamma}$ ${approx}$ 0.07 eV. In the limit of small inhomogeneous broadening, the observed ${gamma}$ places a lower bound for the bright exciton scattering lifetime at 10 fs in the presence of charges and excitons excited by the light pulse for Raman measurement, limited by the rapid exciton-exciton and exciton-charge scattering in graphene.
