Overlaying two atomic layers with a slight lattice mismatch or at a small rotation angle
creates a moiré superlattice, which has properties that are markedly modified from (and at …

Atomically thin layers of two-dimensional materials can be assembled in vertical stacks that
are held together by relatively weak van der Waals forces, enabling coupling between …

Moiré superlattices based on van der Waals bilayers,,–created at small twist angles lead to a
long wavelength pattern with approximate translational symmetry. At large twist angles (θ t) …

Electronic states in quasicrystals generally preclude a Bloch description, rendering them
fascinating and enigmatic. Owing to their complexity and scarcity, quasicrystals are …

Moiré superlattices enable the generation of new quantum phenomena in two-dimensional
heterostructures, in which the interactions between the atomically thin layers qualitatively …

Bilayer graphene can be modified by rotating (twisting) one layer with respect to the other.
The interlayer twist gives rise to a moiré superlattice that affects the electronic motion and …

Moiré superlattices have recently become excellent platforms for studying new properties of
two-dimensional (2D) layered materials. With periodic moiré patterns, moiré superlattices …

Reducing the energy bandwidth of electrons in a lattice below the long-range Coulomb
interaction energy promotes correlation effects. Moiré superlattices—which are created by …

Moiré systems formed by 2D atomic layers have widely tunable electrical and optical
properties and host exotic, strongly correlated and topological phenomena, including …

Moiré superlattices formed by stacking two-dimensional crystals have reinvigorated the
pursuit for emergent functionalities of engineered superlattices. Unique optical …
