It has been revealed that simply twisting and stacking two layers of oxide crystals can allow the atomic arrangement itself ...

Illustration of a moiré pattern that emerges upon stacking and rotating two sheets of bilayer graphene. Correlated electronic states with magnetic ordering emerge in twisted double bilayer graphene ...

(Nanowerk News) Recent advances in the development of devices made of 2D materials are paving the way for new technological capabilities, especially in the field of quantum technology. So far, however ...

Supertwisted WS2 spirals can be synthesized at the edges of nanoribbons, where larger step heights or contact areas of the nanoribbons lead to larger twist angles. The photoluminescence properties of ...

Pablo Jarillo-Herrero tells Hamish Johnston about what happened next after his lab created magic-angle graphene and won the Physics World Breakthrough of the Year award in 2018 Latest twist Pablo ...

Researchers have discovered brand new interference patterns in twisted two-dimensional tungsten ditelluride lattices. These so-called moir patterns can be tuned to look like periodic spots or even one ...

The unusual stacking imparts various angle-dependent properties to tBLG. 2 Moiré patterns are generated by graphene-graphene interactions resulting from the relative layer orientations. These highly ...

Think you know everything about a material? Try giving it a twist­—literally. That’s the main idea of an emerging field in condensed matter physics called “twistronics,” which has researchers ...

In a study published in Science Advances, Prof. Wang Can from the Institute of Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Prof. Xu Xiulai of Peking University have demonstrated for the first time ...
