On-chip light trapping in bilayer moiré photonic crystal slabs [PDF]
Applied Physics Letters, 2022 The optical response of bilayer moiré photonic structures can be precisely controlled by varying the lattice geometry. Bilayer moiré photonic crystal slabs exhibit flat bands in the optical band structure, where the optical modes have zero group velocity.
