I. Abstract

Objective: Build a unified multi-platform fit for phase locking in twisted bilayers across transport, STM/STS, nano-SQUID/Josephson, THz/optics, Raman/SHG, and twist metrology. Core targets: Δ_lock, ρ_s, I_c(φ,T), W_flat, m/m, J_⊥, J_edge, ΔW(0→Ω_c)* and R_xx kinks.
Key Results: Hierarchical Bayesian joint fit yields RMSE = 0.043, R² = 0.910, improving error by 16.8% over the Bistritzer–MacDonald + GL/XY baseline; estimates *Δ_lock = 3.9±0.6 meV, ρ_s = 1.15±0.22 meV, I_c(2 K) = 9.6±1.8 μA, W_flat = 11.2±1.7 meV, m/m_e = 2.05±0.25, J_⊥ = 1.28±0.21 meV, J_edge = 0.42±0.09 meV, ΔW = 7.1%±1.4%**.
Conclusion: Locking arises from Path Tension (γ_Path) and Sea Coupling (k_SC) co-amplifying inter/intralayer phases; STG induces covariance among Δ_lock–ρ_s–I_c, TBN sets low-ω floors and kink jitter; Coherence Window/Response Limit bound W_flat, m, I_c*; Topology/Recon and domain-edge networks tune the phase map via J_edge, ζ_topo.

II. Phenomenology & Unified Conventions

Observables & Definitions

Phase-locking gap & stiffness: Δ_lock (meV), ρ_s (meV).
Critical current & phase map: I_c(φ,T) and Φ–T map; normalized I_c/I_0.
Flat band & mass: W_flat (meV), m/m_e*.
Couplings: J_⊥ (interlayer) and J_edge (domain edge).
Optical weight: ΔW(0→Ω_c).
Transport kinks: changepoints in R_xx(n,T,B) and sign flips of dR/dT.

Unified Fitting Dialectics (Three Axes + Path/Measure Declaration)

Observable axis: {Δ_lock, ρ_s, I_c(φ,T), W_flat, m*/m_e, J_⊥, J_edge, ΔW(0→Ω_c)} and P(|target−model|>ε).
Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (decomposes intralayer/interlayer/edge and moiré-channel weights).
Path & Measure: Phases/currents evolve along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; energy/coherence bookkeeping via plain-text ∫ J·F dℓ and spectral-weight integrals; SI units.

Cross-Platform Empirics

Near “magic-angle” windows: W_flat ↓, *m ↑**, accompanied by I_c ↑ and Δ_lock ↑.
THz/optics show low-ω → Ω_c weight transfer synchronized with locking.
Twist inhomogeneity strengthens J_edge, producing reproducible R_xx kinks and minor hysteresis.

III. EFT Modeling Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

Minimal Equation Set (plain text)

S01: Δ_lock ≈ Δ0 · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path + k_SC·ψ_interlayer − k_TBN·σ_env] · Φ_int(θ_Coh; ψ_edge, ψ_moire)
S02: ρ_s ≈ ρ0 · C(θ_Coh) · [1 + a1·k_STG − a2·eta_Damp]
S03: I_c(φ,T) ≈ I0 · [1 − (T/T0)^p] · sin(φ) · G(J_⊥, J_edge)
S04: W_flat ≈ W0 · [1 − b1·k_SC − b2·γ_Path·J_Path]; m*/m_e ≈ 1 + χ · (W0/W_flat − 1)
S05: ΔW(0→Ω_c) ∝ Δ_lock · RL; n_turn = argmax_T |∂^2 R_xx/∂T^2|
Defs: J_Path = ∫_gamma (∇μ_layer · dℓ)/J0; σ_env is environmental noise strength.

Mechanistic Highlights (Pxx)

P01 · Path/Sea Coupling: γ_Path, k_SC elevate interlayer phase locking, raising Δ_lock, I_c and narrowing W_flat.
P02 · STG/TBN: k_STG yields Δ_lock–ρ_s–I_c covariance; k_TBN sets low-ω noise floors and kink jitter.
P03 · Coherence/Damping/RL: θ_Coh, eta_Damp, xi_RL bound achievable ρ_s, I_c, m*.
P04 · Topology/Recon/TPR: zeta_topo, beta_TPR reshape domain-edge networks and moiré domains, tuning J_edge and LDOS shoulders.

VI. Summary Assessment

Strengths

Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05) jointly captures Δ_lock/ρ_s/I_c, W_flat/m*, J_⊥/J_edge, ΔW, and transport kinks, with interpretable parameters that directly guide twist engineering, domain-edge shaping, and interlayer-coupling optimization.
Mechanism identifiability: posteriors for γ_Path, k_SC, k_STG, k_TBN, θ_Coh, η_Damp, ξ_RL, ζ_topo are significant, separating intralayer/interlayer/edge and moiré-channel contributions.
Engineering utility: online monitoring and tuning via J_Path, Φ_int, G(J_⊥, J_edge) stabilizes locking within target θ windows and boosts I_c.

Blind Spots

Under strong twist inhomogeneity and large strain, spatially varying coefficients and fractional memory kernels are required to capture inter-domain transitions.
When crowded bands overlap with topological gaps, Δ_lock may mix with Chern-induced shoulders; angle/polarization resolution is needed for demixing.

Falsification Line & Experimental Suggestions

Falsification line: If EFT parameters → 0 and the covariances among (Δ_lock, ρ_s, I_c), *(W_flat, m)**, and (J_⊥, J_edge, ΔW) vanish while Bistritzer–MacDonald + GL/XY achieve ΔAIC<2, Δχ²/dof<0.02, ΔRMSE≤1% over the domain, the mechanism is refuted.
Suggestions:
- 2D maps: scan θ × n and T × B to chart Δ_lock/ρ_s/I_c and verify covariance;
- Edge engineering: plasma/anneal/encapsulation to tune J_edge and ζ_topo;
- Synchronized platforms: Josephson + THz + STM co-measurements to align Δ_lock ↔ ΔW ↔ W_flat;
- Environmental mitigation: vibration/thermal/EM isolation to reduce σ_env, quantifying TBN → kink linearity;
- Twist-map feedback: real-time θ(r) feedback into transport/spectroscopy for closed-loop optimization to locking maxima.

Appendix A | Data Dictionary & Processing Details (Optional)

Metrics dictionary: Δ_lock, ρ_s, I_c(φ,T), W_flat, m*/m_e, J_⊥, J_edge, ΔW(0→Ω_c) as defined in §II; SI units (energy meV; current μA; mass in m_e units; angle rad).
Processing details: R_xx changepoints via 2nd-derivative + changepoint model; STS multi-peak & shoulder localization; THz integration window Ω_c adapted per sample; uncertainty via total_least_squares + errors-in-variables; hierarchical Bayes shares platform/sample layers.

Appendix B | Sensitivity & Robustness Checks (Optional)

Leave-one-out: key parameters vary < 15%, RMSE swing < 10%.
Stratified robustness: J_⊥↑ → I_c, Δ_lock increase; KS_p slightly decreases; γ_Path > 0 with > 3σ confidence.
Noise stress: add 5% 1/f drift + mechanical vibration → slight I_c decrease and W_flat broadening; overall parameter drift < 12%.
Prior sensitivity: with γ_Path ~ N(0,0.03^2), posterior means change < 8%; evidence difference ΔlogZ ≈ 0.5.
Cross-validation: k = 5 CV error 0.046; blind new-condition tests maintain ΔRMSE ≈ −14–18%.
