▎ 摘  要

Charge carriers in graphene exhibit distinct characteristics from those in other two-dimensional materials because of their chiral nature. Additionally, multiple Dirac cones that emerge in graphene superlattices have been regarded as an interesting point in condensed-matter physics in recent years. Here, we report an investigation of the magneto-conductance in graphene encapsulated on the top and bottom by aligned h-BN. The bottom h-BN is precisely aligned with graphene, while the top h-BN is rotated a very small angle relative to it. Such a heterostructure could spoil the commensurate state existing in precisely aligned graphene while the giant moire superlattice remains. A clear signature of weak localization and weak anti-localization is observed at multiple Dirac cones. Both the weak (anti)localization and the universal conductance fluctuations exhibit strong dependencies on the carrier density, temperature and channel length. This artificial heterostructure allows one to explore quantum interference in graphene with a wide spectrum of electronic properties.
