| dc.description.abstract | [EN]Graphene on hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) can exhibit a topological phase via mutual crystallographic alignment. Recent measurements of nonlocal resistance (Rnl) near the secondary Dirac point (SDP) in ballistic graphene/hBN superlattices have been interpreted as arising due to the quantum valley Hall state. We report hBN/graphene/hBN superlattices in which Rnl at SDP is negligible, but below 60 K approaches the value of h/2e2 in zero magnetic field at the primary Dirac point with a characteristic decay length of 2 μm. Furthermore, nonlocal transport transmission probabilities based on the Landauer-Büttiker formalism show evidence for spin-degenerate ballistic valley-helical edge modes, which are key for the development of valleytronics. | es_ES |
