text: Bernal-stacked multilayer graphene is a versatile platform to explore quantum
transport phenomena and interaction physics due to its exceptional tunability
via electrostatic gating. For instance, upon applying a perpendicular electric
field, its band structure exhibits several off-center Dirac points (so-called
Dirac gullies) in each valley. Here, the formation of Dirac gullies and the interaction-induced
breakdown of gully coherence is explored via magnetotransport measurements in
high-quality Bernal-stacked (ABA) trilayer graphene. At zero magnetic field, multiple
Lifshitz transitions indicating the formation of Dirac gullies are identified.
In the quantum Hall regime, the emergence of Dirac gullies is evident as an increase
in Landau level degeneracy. When tuning both electric and magnetic fields, electron–electron
interactions can be controllably enhanced until, beyond critical electric and
magnetic fields, the gully degeneracy is eventually lifted. The arising correlated
ground state is consistent with a previously predicted nematic phase that spontaneously
breaks the rotational gully symmetry.
