Hexalayer graphene shows superconductivity and orbital magnetism

Original: Superconductivity and ferroelectric orbital magnetism in semimetallic rhombohedral hexalayer graphene

Researchers report in Nature that semimetallic rhombohedral hexalayer graphene exhibits both superconductivity and ferroelectric orbital magnetism. The finding adds to growing evidence that carefully stacked graphene layers can host exotic electronic states, opening new avenues for studying quantum materials without chemical doping or complex heterostructures.

Why now: A high-profile Nature paper reports two sought-after quantum states coexisting in a simple graphene stack, exciting condensed-matter physicists.
