- We report on the fabrication and characterization of dual-gated hexagonal boron nitride (hBN)/bilayer-graphene (BLG) superlattices. Due to the moire effect, the hBN/BLG superlattice harbors an energy gap at the charge neutral point (CNP) and the satellites even without a perpendicular electric field. In BLG, moreover, the application of a perpendicular electric field tunes the energy gap, which contrasts with the single-layer graphene (SLG) and is linked to the family of rhombohedral multilayer graphene. Therefore, the hBN/BLG superlattice is accompanied with non-trivial energy-band topology and a narrow energy band with van Hove singularities. By the dual gating, systematic engineering of the energy-band structure can be performed and the carrier concentration is fine-tunable. This review is an extended version of the talk based on ref. [1], which is also a supplementary to the ref. T. Iwasaki, Y. Morita, K. Watanabe, T. Taniguchi, Phys. Rev. B106, 165134 (2022) and Phys. Rev. B109, 075409 (2024). The data show the universality and diversity in the physics of the hBN/BLG superlattices.
