Various spontaneous symmetry broken phases such as Stoner ferromagnetism, spin-polarized superconductivity, a quantum anomalous Hall octet and a topologically non-trivial Wigner-Hall crystal phase have recently been reported in bilayer graphene (BLG) [1]. Since these interaction-driven phenomena are dictated by the ratio of the Coulomb and kinetic energy of carriers, they can be promoted by the formation of flat bands and a divergent density of states (DoS) near Lifshitz transitions (LT). Trigonally warped BLG at low vertical displacement fields (D-field) and carrier densities (∼ 10¹¹ cm⁻²) displays one centre and three off-centre Dirac cones in each valley, and therefore offers a rich playground for correlated phases (CP) and changes in the Fermi surface topology by inducing charge density and D-field driven LT. Here, we report on quantum Hall measurements near charge density and D-field driven LT in trigonally warped BLG encapsulated in hexagonal boron-nitride in a dual-gated architecture with graphite contacts and graphite gates at 10 mK. We further outline our status on the temperature dependence of several CP in the aforementioned regimes.
