Measurements on dual gated, hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN) encapsulated Bernal bilayer graphene samples, have revealed a complex phase space for Bernal bilayer graphene, including numerous Stoner metals, a correlated insulator consistent with a Wigner-Hall crystal [1] and superconducting behavior [2].
We have investigated the influence of the gate induced Coulomb interaction screening [3] on the appearance of previously reported correlated phases in gated Bernal bilayer graphene devices, using the thickness of the dielectric hBN spacing layers as variable parameter. In direct comparison of devices studied here, which are characterized by a comparably thin h-BN layer, with the data of Seiler et. al. , we observed behavior, which is supportive of an effectively lowered magnitude of Coulomb interactions. Additionally, three features in the transport data were identified, which could potentially be indicative of phases, not reported in [1] and [2].
