Imaging tunable quantum Hall broken-symmetry orders in graphene

When electrons populate a flat band their kinetic energy becomes negligible, forcing them to organize in exotic many-body states to minimize their Coulomb energy. The zeroth Landau level of graphene under a magnetic field is a particularly interesting strongly interacting flat band because interelectron interactions are predicted to induce a rich variety of broken-symmetry states with distinct topological and lattice-scale orders.

Published in the journal Nature 605, pages 51–56 (2022), find the scientific result on the INP website here or on tweeter.

Congratulations to Benjamin Sacépé and his team!
