Quantum Hall (QH) interferometry provides an archetypal platform for the experimental realization of braiding statistics of fractional QH states. However, the complexity of observing fractional statistics requires phase coherence over the length of the interferometer, as well as suppression of Coulomb charging energy. Here, we demonstrate a new type of QH interferometer based on marginally twisted bilayer graphene (mtBLG), with a twist angle θ ≈ 0.16°. With the device operating in the QH regime, we observe distinct signatures of electronic Fabry-Pérot and Aharonov-Bohm oscillations of the magneto-thermopower in the density-magnetic field phase space, at Landau level filling factors ν = 4, 8. We find that QH interference effects are intrinsic to the triangular AB/BA domains in mtBLG that show diminished Coulomb charging effects. Our results demonstrate phase-coherent interference of QH edge modes without any additional gate-defined complex architecture, which may be beneficial in experimental realizations of non-Abelian braiding statistics.
量子霍尔(QH)干涉测量为分数量子霍尔态编织统计的实验实现提供了一个典型平台。然而,观测分数统计的复杂性要求在干涉仪长度上具有相位相干性,同时抑制库仑充电能量。在此,我们展示了一种基于微扭转双层石墨烯(mtBLG)的新型QH干涉仪,其扭转角θ≈0.16°。在该器件工作于量子霍尔 regime时,我们在朗道能级填充因子ν = 4、8的密度 - 磁场相空间中观测到了磁热功率的电子法布里 - 珀罗和阿哈罗诺夫 - 玻姆振荡的明显特征。我们发现量子霍尔干涉效应对于mtBLG中的三角形AB/BA畴是固有的,这些畴显示出库仑充电效应的减弱。我们的结果证明了量子霍尔边缘模式的相位相干干涉,无需任何额外的栅极定义复杂结构,这可能有利于非阿贝尔编织统计的实验实现。
