Twist degree of freedom activated by pressure-driven interlayer engineering in spiral WS2 [PDF]
Precise twist-angle control in van der Waals (vdW) moiré superlattices enables twistronic tuning of interfacial responses and emergent quantum states, but it remains unclear how atomic registry in three-dimensional stacks is linked to interlayer coupling

Measuring local moiré lattice heterogeneity of twisted bilayer graphene
We introduce a new method to continuously map inhomogeneities of a moiré lattice and apply it to large-area topographic images we measure on open-device twisted bilayer graphene (TBG).

Tunable electronic structure in twisted WTe2/WSe2 heterojunction bilayer
Electronic structures of non-twisted and twisted WTe2/WSe2 heterojunction bilayers were investigated using first-principles calculations. Our results show that, for the twisted WTe2/WSe2 heterojunction bilayer, the bandgaps are all direct bandgaps, and ...
