  "abstract": "Brownian dynamics of Dirac fermions in twisted bilayer graphene is investigated within the framework of semiclassical relativistic Langevin equations. We find that under the influence of orthogonal, commensurate ac drives in the periodic ratchet potential of a substrate, the charge carriers in the system exhibit pronounced random dynamics, tuned by the twist angle, making twisted bilayer graphene distinguishable from monolayer graphene. It is shown that as threshold twist angle matches the optimal angle, deterministic running states appear in the limit of weak thermal noise where the diffusion rate is enhanced significantly compared to bare thermal diffusion. Analysis of the real space trajectories and diffusion coefficient illustrates the significant role of thermal noise in the random motion of Dirac fermions. In addition, we find that the Brownian particle shows remarkable ratchet effect as a net current.",
