This paper presents our findings on the recursive band gap engineering of chiral fermions in bilayer graphene doubly aligned with hBN. Using two interfering moiré potentials, we generate a supermoiré pattern that renormalizes the electronic bands of the pristine bilayer graphene, resulting in higher order fractal gaps even at very low energies. These Bragg gaps can be mapped using a unique linear combination of periodic areas within the system.

We achieve this in high-mobility aligned heterostructures of bilayer graphene (BLG) and hBN. Around the half-full point, the primary contribution to the resistance of these devices arises from Umklapp electron-electron (Uee) scattering, making the resistance of graphene/hBN moiré devices significantly larger than that of non-aligned devices (where Uee is forbidden).
