Simultaneous transport and tunnelling spectroscopy of a moiré superconductor

ORAL

Abstract

Moiré material serves as a versatile platform for investigating strongly-correlated emergent phenomena, while offering flexible in situ tunability. Among all the graphene-based and moiré systems, the magic-angle twisted graphene family exhibits the highest superconducting transition temperature, yet the nature of its superconductivity remains undetermined. We present the first simultaneous tunneling spectroscopy and transport measurements on a magic-angle twisted graphene system, directly correlating tunneling spectra with transport properties. Detailed temperature- and magnetic-field-dependent studies of the tunneling spectra reveal insights into the superconducting phases. Our platform provides a new framework for studying moiré superconductors and can be easily extended to other quantum material systems.
