Using the Migdal-Eliashberg framework on a one parameter effective lattice model for tBG we show that a superconducting state can be achieved by means of collective electronic modes in tBG. We posit robust features of the theory, including an asymmetrical superconducting dome and the magnitude of the critical temperature that are in agreement with experiments.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-09-05T18:00:03.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "magic angle twisted bilayer graphene", "collective excitations", "posit robust features", "parameter effective lattice model", "electronic mechanism" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
