Quasiperiodicity changes the ground-state properties of 1D narrow-band moiré systems, study demonstrates

Moiré materials, such as twisted bilayer graphene, are materials generally formed by stacking two or more layers of 2D materials on top of each other with a small lattice mismatch. This slight mismatch creates a unique pattern ...
