Moiré bands in twisted double-layer graphene
R Bistritzer, AH MacDonald - Proceedings of the National …, 2011 - National Acad Sciences
A moiré pattern is formed when two copies of a periodic pattern are overlaid with a relative
twist. We address the electronic structure of a twisted two-layer graphene system, showing …

Anomalous hall effect
N Nagaosa, J Sinova, S Onoda, AH MacDonald… - Reviews of modern …, 2010 - APS
The anomalous Hall effect (AHE) occurs in solids with broken time-reversal symmetry,
typically in a ferromagnetic phase, as a consequence of spin-orbit coupling. Experimental and …
