Realisation of topological zero-energy mode in bilayer graphene in zero magnetic field
Abstract Bilayer graphene (BLG) gapped by a vertical electric field represents a valley-symmetry-protected topological insulating state. Emergence of a new topological zero-energy mode has been proposed in BLG at a boundary between regions of inverted band gaps induced by two oppositely polarized ve...
