Bilayer graphene has been predicted to host a moiré miniband with flat dispersion if the
layers are stacked at specific twist angles known as the'magic angles',. Recently, twisted …

Of the two stable forms of graphite, hexagonal and rhombohedral, the former is more
common and has been studied extensively. The latter is less stable, which has so far …

In atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenide semiconductors, there is a crossover from
indirect to direct band gap as the thickness drops to one monolayer, which comes with a fast …

Conventionally, magnetism arises from the strong exchange interaction among the magnetic
moments of d-or f-shell electrons. It can also emerge in perfect lattices from nonmagnetic …

The growth of bilayers of two-dimensional (2D) materials on conventional 3D
semiconductors results in 2D/3D hybrid heterostructures, which can provide additional …

Porous nanosheet materials have recently emerged as attractive candidates to serve as
nanofiltration membranes. Through first-principles calculations based on density functional …

In crystalline solids, the interactions of charge and spin can result in a variety of emergent
quantum ground states, especially in partially filled, topological flat bands such as Landau …

Progress in performing angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) with high
spatial resolution on the order of 1 μm or less (nanoARPES) has opened the possibility to …

Nanoporous materials have attracted great interest because of their variety of applications in
nanodevices, such as gas storage, low-density magnetic storage, energy storage …

Flat bands and nontrivial topological physics are two important topics of condensed matter
physics. With a unique stacking configuration analogous to the Su–Schrieffer–Heeger …
