Bilayer graphene is a material consisting of two layers of graphene. One of the first reports of bilayer graphene was in the seminal 2004 Science paper by Geim and colleagues, [ 1 ] in which they described devices "which contained just one, two, or three atomic layers"
Bilayer graphene displays the anomalous quantum Hall effect, a tunable band gap [3] and potential for excitonic condensation. [4] Bilayer graphene typically can be found either in twisted configurations where the two layers are rotated relative to each other or graphitic Bernal stacked configurations where half the atoms in one layer lie atop half the atoms in the other.

This is a result of the Atiyah–Singer index theorem index theorem and causes the "+1/2" term in the Hall conductivity for neutral graphene. [4] [47] In bilayer graphene, the quantum Hall effect is also observed but with only one of the two anomalies. The Hall conductivity in bilayer graphene is given by:
In 2018 they verified that superconductivity existed in bilayer graphene where one layer was rotated by an angle of 1.1° relative to the other, forming a moiré pattern, at a temperature of 1.7 K (−271.45 °C; −456.61 °F). [2] [16] [17] They created two bilayer devices that acted as an insulator instead of a conductor without a magnetic ...
Potential energy surface for silver depositing on an aluminium–palladium–manganese (Al–Pd–Mn) quasicrystal surface. Similar to Fig. 6 in Ref. [1] A quasiperiodic crystal, or quasicrystal, is a structure that is ordered but not periodic. A quasicrystalline pattern can continuously fill all available space, but it lacks translational ...
A bilayer is a double layer of closely packed atoms or molecules.. The properties of bilayers are often studied in condensed matter physics, particularly in the context of semiconductor devices, where two distinct materials are united to form junctions, such as p–n junctions, Schottky junctions, etc. Layered materials, such as graphene, boron nitride, or transition metal dichalcogenides ...
Bilayer graphene typically can be found either in twisted configurations where the two layers are rotated relative to each other or graphitic Bernal stacked configurations where half the atoms in one layer lie atop half the atoms in the other. [203] Stacking order and orientation govern the optical and electronic properties of bilayer graphene.
A micelle is a monolayer, and the phospholipid lipid bilayer structure of biological membranes is technically two monolayers. Langmuir monolayers are commonly used to mimic cell membrane to study the effects of pharmaceuticals or toxins. [4]
