Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) heterostructures have
attracted a lot of attention due to their rich material diversity and stack geometry, precise …

Abstract Two-dimensional materials (2DM) and their heterostructures offer tunable electrical
and optical properties, primarily modifiable through electrostatic gating and twisting …

The layer‐by‐layer stacked van der Waals structures (termed vdW hetero/homostructures)
offer a new paradigm for materials design—their physical properties can be tuned by the …

We study the effects of strain in moiré systems composed of honeycomb lattices. We
elucidate the formation of almost perfect one-dimensional moiré patterns in twisted bilayer …

The exceptional control of the electronic energy bands in atomically thin quantum materials
has led to the discovery of several emergent phenomena. However, at present there is no …

The discovery of the topological transition in twisted bilayer (tBL) materials has attracted
considerable attention in nano‐optics. In the analogue of acoustics, however, no such …

Nonlinear optical processes lie at the heart of frequency tunable coherent light sources,
including entangled photon sources and squeezed states of light, and they have become …

Moiré superlattices in twisted van der Waals homo/heterostructures present a fascinating
interplay between electronic and atomic structures, with potential applications in electronic …

As a second-order nonlinear optical phenomenon, the bulk photovoltaic (BPV) effect is
expected to break through the Shockley–Queisser limit of thermodynamic photoelectron …

Understanding the impact of spatial heterogeneity on the behaviour of two-dimensional
materials represents one of the grand challenges in applying these materials in …
