To begin, as the Fermi level and band structure of two-dimensional materials are readily tunable, they constitute an ideal platform for exploring the Lifshitz transition, a change in the topology of a material’s Fermi surface. Using tetralayer graphene that host two intersecting massive Dirac bands, we demonstrate multiple Lifshitz transitions and multiband transport, which manifest as a nonmonotonic dependence of conductivity on the charge density $$n$$ and out-of-plane electric field $$D$$, anomalous quantum Hall sequences and Landau level crossings that evolve with $n, D$ and $$B$$.
