Twisted bilayer graphene

Two sheets of graphene stacked at a small relative angle. Near a twist of about 1.1 degrees its electronic bands flatten and the material hosts correlated insulating states and superconductivity.

Heating only the electrons in twisted graphene raises its resistance by kilohms

Warming a metal's electrons without warming its atoms is hard to arrange. A team at the National University of Singapore managed it in twisted bilayer graphene with 0.14-terahertz light, then read the resistance.
