Topological flat bands formed in two-dimensional lattice systems offer unique opportunity to study the fractional phases of matter in the absence of an external magnetic field. Celebrated examples include fractional quantum anomalous Hall (FQAH) effects and fractional topological insulators. Recently, FQAH effects have been experimentally realized in both the twisted bilayer MoTe2 (tMoTe2) system and the rhombohedral stacked multilayer graphene/hBN moir\'e systems. To date, experimental studies mainly focus on the first moir\'e flat band, except a very recent work that studied novel transport properties in higher moir\'e bands of a 2.1{\deg} tMoTe2 device. Here, we present the systematical transport study of approximately 3{\deg} tMoTe2 devices, especially for the second moir\'e band. At {\nu} = -2 and -4, time-reversal-symmetric single and double quantum spin Hall states formed, consistent with the previous observation in 2.1{\deg} tMoTe2 device. On the other hand, we observed ferromagnetism in the second moir\'e band, and a Chern insulator state driven by out-of-plane magnetic fields at {\nu} = -3. At {\nu} = -2.2 to -2.7, finite temperature resistivity minimum with 1/T scaling at low temperatures, and large out-of-plane negative magnetoresistance have been observed. Applying out-of-plane electric field can induce quantum phase transitions at both integer and fractional filling factors. Our studies pave the way for realizing tunable topological states and other unexpected magnetic phases beyond the first moir\'e flat band based on twisted MoTe2 platform.

  1. Signatures of unconventional superconductivity near reentrant and fractional quantum anomalous Hall insulators

    cond-mat.mes-hall 2025-04 unverdicted novelty 8.0 of 10

    Superconductivity emerges from a state with anomalous Hall effects in the flat Chern band of twisted bilayer MoTe2, providing the first reported coexistence with fractional quantum anomalous Hall effects.

  2. Intervalley-Coupled Twisted Bilayer Graphene from Substrate Commensuration

    cond-mat.mes-hall 2025-03 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Substrate commensuration induces intervalley coupling in TBG, hybridizing flat bands into a p_x-p_y honeycomb model with quadratic touchings that flatten due to frustration and yield topological bands with C up to 4.
