요약Non-trivial flat bands often give rise to strongly interacting physics in solid state systems. In recent years, the flat bands in twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) near the magic angle have attracted great attention both theoretically and experimentally because of their correlated insulator and unconventional superconducting states. In this dissertation, we describe novel moire graphene constructions that yield non-trivial flat bands of a different nature to those in TBG. In particular, we focus on the flat bands arising in one-orbital kagome and two-orbital honeycomb lattice tight-binding models due to wavefunction interference.After a brief introduction, we begin Ch. 2 by analyzing TBG near commensuration. We show that twisting bilayer graphene slightly away from any commensurate angle yields a moire material. Although the magic angles in these materials are likely too small for experimental realization, we additionally discover a parameter regime in the abstract model yielding many kagome and honeycomb lattice flat bands simultaneously. Since these results cannot be realized with TBG near commensuration, the focus of Ch. 3 is on physical moire constructions approximately realizing this parameter regime. The most experimentally feasible construction in Ch. 3 consists of placing graphene on a substrate material with a lattice constant chosen to couple the two graphene valleys. We show that this model may give rise to many interesting low energy band structures including those with kagome or honeycomb lattice flat bands. Additionally, if the substrate has spin-orbit coupling, the low energy bands may have high spin Chern numbers.Finally, in Ch. 4 we consider moire systems including graphene layers with extrinsically induced Kekule-O orders. This type of order can be induced by lithium intercalation or deposition, and in a single graphene layer it couples the valleys and opens a band gap. We show that a moire system consisting of a layer of normal graphene twisted relative to a layer of Kekule-O graphene can realize honeycomb lattice flat bands. Furthermore, we show that a moire system consisting of two layers of Kekule-O graphene with a relative twist can realize kagome lattice flat bands.

■520    ▼aNon-trivial  flat  bands  often  give  rise  to  strongly  interacting  physics  in  solid  state  systems.  In  recent  years,  the  flat  bands  in  twisted  bilayer  graphene  (TBG)  near  the  magic  angle  have  attracted  great  attention  both  theoretically  and  experimentally  because  of  their  correlated  insulator  and  unconventional  superconducting  states.  In  this  dissertation,  we  describe  novel  moire  graphene  constructions  that  yield  non-trivial  flat  bands  of  a  different  nature  to  those  in  TBG.  In  particular,  we  focus  on  the  flat  bands  arising  in  one-orbital  kagome  and  two-orbital  honeycomb  lattice  tight-binding  models  due  to  wavefunction  interference.After  a  brief  introduction,  we  begin  Ch.  2  by  analyzing  TBG  near  commensuration.  We  show  that  twisting  bilayer  graphene  slightly  away  from  any  commensurate  angle  yields  a  moire  material.  Although  the  magic  angles  in  these  materials  are  likely  too  small  for  experimental  realization,  we  additionally  discover  a  parameter  regime  in  the  abstract  model  yielding  many  kagome  and  honeycomb  lattice  flat  bands  simultaneously. Since  these  results  cannot  be  realized  with  TBG  near  commensuration,  the  focus  of  Ch.  3  is  on  physical  moire  constructions  approximately  realizing  this  parameter  regime.  The  most  experimentally  feasible  construction  in  Ch.  3  consists  of  placing  graphene  on  a  substrate  material  with  a  lattice  constant  chosen  to  couple  the  two  graphene  valleys.  We  show  that  this  model  may  give  rise  to  many  interesting  low  energy  band  structures  including  those  with  kagome  or  honeycomb  lattice  flat  bands.  Additionally,  if  the  substrate  has  spin-orbit  coupling,  the  low  energy  bands  may  have  high  spin  Chern  numbers.Finally,  in  Ch.  4  we  consider  moire  systems  including  graphene  layers  with  extrinsically  induced  Kekule-O  orders.  This  type  of  order  can  be  induced  by  lithium  intercalation  or  deposition,  and  in  a  single  graphene  layer  it  couples  the  valleys  and  opens  a  band  gap.  We  show  that  a  moire  system  consisting  of  a  layer  of  normal  graphene  twisted  relative  to  a  layer  of  Kekule-O  graphene  can  realize  honeycomb  lattice  flat  bands.  Furthermore,  we  show  that  a  moire  system  consisting  of  two  layers  of  Kekule-O  graphene  with  a  relative  twist  can  realize  kagome  lattice  flat  bands.
