Moiré-Induced Transport in CVD-Based Small-Angle Twisted Bilayer Graphene

Abstract: To realize the applicative potential of 2D twistronic devices, scalable synthesis and assembly techniques need to meet stringent requirements in terms of interface cleanness and twist-angle homogeneity. Here, we show that small-angle twisted bilayer graphene assembled from separated CVD-grown graphene single-crystals can ensure high-quality transport properties, determined by a device-scale-uniform moire\'e potential. Via low-temperature dual-gated magnetotransport, we demonstrate the hallmarks of a $2.4^\circ$ -twisted superlattice, including tunable regimes of interlayer coupling, reduced Fermi velocity, large interlayer capacitance, and density-independent Brown-Zak oscillations. The observation of these moir\'e-induced electrical transport features establishes CVD-based twisted bilayer graphene as an alternative to 'tear-and-stack' exfoliated flakes for fundamental studies, while serving as a proof-of-concept for future large-scale assembly.
