Giant orbital magnetoelectric effect and current-induced magnetization switching in twisted bilayer graphene

The mechanism of current-driven magnetization switching in twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) is poorly understood. Here, He et al. show that a small current can generate a large orbital magnetization due to symmetry breaking by the twisting and substrate in TBG, leading to a giant orbital magnetoelectr...

Sumario:The mechanism of current-driven magnetization switching in twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) is poorly understood. Here, He et al. show that a small current can generate a large orbital magnetization due to symmetry breaking by the twisting and substrate in TBG, leading to a giant orbital magnetoelectric effect.
