Commensurability Oscillations in One-Dimensional Graphene Superlattices.

We report the experimental observation of commensurability oscillations (COs) in 1D graphene superlattices. The widely tunable periodic potential modulation in hBN-encapsulated graphene is generated via the interplay of nanopatterned few-layer graphene acting as a local bottom gate and a global Si back gate. The longitudinal magnetoresistance shows pronounced COs when the sample is tuned into the unipolar transport regime. We observe up to six CO minima, providing evidence for a long mean free path despite the potential modulation. Comparison to existing theories shows that small-angle scattering is dominant in hBN/graphene/hBN heterostructures. We observe robust COs persisting to temperatures exceeding T=150  K. At high temperatures, we find deviations from the predicted T dependence, which we ascribe to electron-electron scattering.
