Pablo Jarillo-Herrero (born June 11, 1976) is a Spanish physicist and current Cecil and Ida Green Professor of Physics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

In January 2008 he joined MIT as an assistant professor of physics and received tenure.

[2][3] In 2018 Jarillo-Herrero presented a new 2D-platform to investigate strongly correlated physics, based on graphene moiré superlattices.

When two graphene sheets are twisted by an angle close to a "magic angle" theoretically predicted by Allan MacDonald and Rafi Bistritzer,[4][5][6] the resulting flat band structure near the Dirac point gives rise to a strongly-correlated electronic system.

His research demonstrated electrically tunable superconductivity in this system of pure carbon and without an applied magnetic field.
