The ν = 0 quantum Hall state of bilayer graphene is a fertile playground to realize many-body ground states with various broken symmetries. Here we report the experimental observations of a previously unreported metallic phase. The metallic phase resides in the phase space between the previously identified layer polarized state at large transverse electric field and the canted antiferromagnetic state at small transverse electric field. We also report temperature dependence studies of the quantum spin Hall state of ν = 0. Complex non-monotonic behavior reveals concomitant bulk and edge conductions and excitations. These results provide timely experimental update to understand the rich physics of the ν = 0 state.Bilayer graphene (BLG) in a magnetic field B offers an exciting opportunity to examine the emergence of many-body ground states arising from its multiple internal electronic degrees of freedom. The non-interacting and unbiased ν = 0 possesses eight approximately degenerate Landau levels (LLs) labeled by their spin (↓ and ↑), valley (K and K′) and orbital (N = 0, 1) quantum numbers. The interplay between Coulomb interactions in a perpendicular magnetic field B and layer/ valley polarization driven by an external electric field D gives rise to many-body ground states with various broken symmetries [1-23]. Effective short-ranged interactions, for example, is shown to stabilize a canted spin anti-ferromagnetic (CAF), layer coherent ground state at small D, which transitions to a fully layer (FLP), spin unpolarized state at large D [9,10]. Experiments to date support this scenario, where a conductance peak is commonly associated with the putative CAF/ FLP phase boundary [18,20,[23][24][25]. This line boundary further splits into two branches at high perpendicular magnetic field B > 12 T, with the phase region in between thought to be partially polarized in all indices [20,23,26,27].Even at a moderate B, calculations including more hopping terms and other symmetryallowed electron-electron interaction terms have uncovered a more nuanced picture [11,17,26]. For example, theory shows that a broken-U (1) × U (1) phase that is canted in both spin and valley could be stabilized in certain parameter regimes in the vicinity of the CAF/ FLP phase boundary [26]. Their experimental plausibility remains to be tested.
