abstract

We propose a phenomenological understanding of the recently discovered weak Mott insulator in the moir\'e superlattice of twisted bilayer graphene, especially the emergent superconductivity at low temperature within the weak Mott insulator phase, namely while lowering temperature, the longitudinal resistivity first grows below temperature $T_m$, but then rapidly drops to zero at even lower temperature $T_c$. An emergent superconductor in an insulator phase is very unusual. Here we propose that this phenomenon is due to the pure two-dimensional nature of the bilayer graphene moir\'e superlattice. We also compare our results with other theories proposed so far.

    Using a fitted universal constant from earlier work, the authors calculate twisted-bilayer-graphene transition temperatures of 1.94 K and 3.02 K and claim agreement with mean-field fits to published resistance data.
