By computing the total energy of a distorted bilayer, we conclude that the ground state of the system favors a finite distortion. We explore how the equilibrium configuration changes with carrier density and an applied potential difference between the two layers.Mesoscale and Nanoscale PhysicsOther Condensed MatterDistortion of the perfect lattice structure in bilayer graphenetext
