Resonant tunneling and intrinsic bistability in twisted graphene structures

We predict that vertical transport in heterostructures formed by twisted graphene layers can exhibit a unique bistability mechanism. Intrinsically bistable I-V characteristics arise from resonant tunneling and interlayer charge coupling, enabling multiple stable states in the sequential tunneling re...
