Scattering between minivalleys in a moiré material

Abstract: A unique feature of the complex band structures of moir\'e materials is the presence of minivalleys, their hybridization, and scattering between them. Here we investigate magneto-transport oscillations caused by scattering between minivalleys - a phenomenon analogous to magneto-intersubband oscillations - in a twisted double bilayer graphene sample with a twist angle of 1.94{\deg}. We study and discuss the potential scattering mechanisms and find an electron-phonon mechanism and valley conserving scattering to be likely. Finally, we discuss the relevance of our findings for different materials and twist angles.
