Twisted bilayer graphene has emerged as a powerful system for studying flat band induced exotic quantum phase transitions, offering valuable insights into quantum phenomena [1]. However, the fixed angle between layers in this system limits the tunability of electronic correlations, prompting researchers to explore alternative approaches. Naturally occurring few-layer graphene systems provide a promising solution, as stacking failures in these systems can result in rhombohedral stacking. This configuration enables continuous control of interactions through external electric fields, offering a versatile platform for studying quantum phase transitions [2-3]. By identifying rhombohedral domains, fabricating devices, and conducting electrical characterization, in this work we discuss its electronic phase diagram that encompasses both superconducting and magnetic phase transitions.
