▎ 摘  要

To understand correlated insulating and unconventional superconducting states in twisted bilayer graphene, we perform a systematic study of spin and pairing correlations in an effective two-orbital Hubbard model, by using the ground-state constrained-path quantum Monte Carlo method. Our numerical simulations reveal that when only the on-site Hubbard U is considered, the long-range magnetic order develops for U >= 3.2t at half filling. Upon doping away from half filling, an analysis based on the pairing correlations and corresponding vertex contributions identifies that pairing with the d + id symmetry is the dominant pairing channel. As the on-site Coulomb interaction is increased, both spin correlation and effective pairing interaction are enhanced simultaneously, indicating the intimate relation between magnetism and superconductivity. An inclusion of nearest neighbor Coulomb interaction V results in a suppression of the d + id superconductivity, but it can survive in the small V regime. Our findings are useful for clarifying the ongoing controversy on the superconducting pairing symmetry in twisted bilayer graphene.
