Flexible long period moir e superlattices form in two-dimensional van der Waals crystals containing layers that differ slightly in lattice constant or orientation. In this Letter we show theoretically that isolated flat moir e bands described by generalized triangular lattice Hubbard models are present in twisted transition metal dichalcogenide heterobilayers. The hopping and interaction strength parameters of the Hubbard model can be tuned by varying the twist angle and the three-dimensional dielectric environment. When the flat moire bands are partially filled, candidate many-body ground states at some special filling factors include spin-liquid states, quantum anomalous Hall insulators and chiral $d$-wave superconductors.

We develop a minimal theory for the recently observed metal-insulator transition (MIT) in two-dimensional (2D) moire multilayer transition metal dichalcogenides (mTMD) using Coulomb disorder in the environment as the underlying mechanism. In particul
ar, carrier scattering by random charged impurities leads to an effective 2D MIT approximately controlled by the Ioffe-Regel criterion, which is qualitatively consistent with the experiments. We find the necessary disorder to be around $5$-$10times10^{10}$cm$^{-2}$ random charged impurities in order to quantitatively explain much, but not all, of the observed MIT phenomenology as reported by two different experimental groups. Our estimate is consistent with the known disorder content in TMDs.
Fabricating van der Waals (vdW) bilayer heterostructures (BL-HS) by stacking the same or different two-dimensional (2D) layers, offers a unique physical system with rich electronic and optical properties. Twist-angle between component layers has emer
ged as a remarkable parameter that can control the period of lateral confinement, and nature of the exciton (Coulomb bound electron-hole pair) in reciprocal space thus creating exotic physical states including moire excitons. In this review article, we focus on opto-electronic properties of excitons in transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) semiconductor twisted BL-HS. We look at existing evidence of moire excitons in localized and strongly correlated states, and at nanoscale mapping of moire superlattice and lattice-reconstruction. This review will be helpful in guiding the community as well as motivating work in areas such as near-field optical measurements and controlling the creation of novel physical states.
In twisted bilayers of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), a combination of structural rippling and electronic coupling gives rise to periodic moire potentials that can confine charged and neutral excitations. Here, we report expe
rimental measurements of the structure and spectroscopic properties of twisted bilayers of WSe2 and MoSe2 in the H-stacking configuration using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Our experiments reveal that the moire potential in these bilayers at small angles is unexpectedly large, reaching values of above 300 meV for the valence band and 150 meV for the conduction band - an order of magnitude larger than theoretical estimates based on interlayer coupling alone. We further demonstrate that the moire potential is a non-monotonic function of moire wavelength, reaching a maximum at around a 13nm moire period. This non-monotonicity coincides with a drastic change in the structure of the moire pattern from a continuous variation of stacking order at small moire wavelengths to a one-dimensional soliton dominated structure at large moire wavelengths. We show that the in-plane structure of the moire pattern is captured well by a continuous mechanical relaxation model, and find that the moire structure and internal strain rather than the interlayer coupling is the dominant factor in determining the moire potential. Our results demonstrate the potential of using precision moire structures to create deeply trapped carriers or excitations for quantum electronics and optoelectronics.
The formation of interfacial moire patterns from angular and/or lattice mismatch has become a powerful approach to engineer a range of quantum phenomena in van der Waals heterostructures. For long-lived and valley-polarized interlayer excitons in tra
nsition-metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) heterobilayers, signatures of quantum confinement by the moire landscape have been reported in recent experimental studies. Such moire confinement has offered the exciting possibility to tailor new excitonic systems, such as ordered arrays of zero-dimensional (0D) quantum emitters and their coupling into topological superlattices. A remarkable nature of the moire potential is its dramatic response to strain, where a small uniaxial strain can tune the array of quantum-dot-like 0D traps into parallel stripes of one-dimensional (1D) quantum wires. Here, we present direct evidence for the 1D moire potentials from real space imaging and the corresponding 1D moire excitons from photoluminescence (PL) emission in MoSe2/WSe2 heterobilayers. Whereas the 0D moire excitons display quantum emitter-like sharp PL peaks with circular polarization, the PL emission from 1D moire excitons has linear polarization and two orders of magnitude higher intensity. The results presented here establish strain engineering as a powerful new method to tailor moire potentials as well as their optical and electronic responses on demand.
Small-twist-angle transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) heterobilayers develop isolated flat moire bands that are approximately described by triangular lattice generalized Hubbard models [PhysRevLett.121.026402]. In this article we explore the metall
ic and insulating states that appear under different control conditions at a density of one-electron per moire period, and the transitions between them. By combining fully self-consistent Hartree-Fock theory calculations with strong-coupling expansions around the atomic limit, we identify four different magnetic states and one nonmagnetic state near the model phase diagrams metal-insulator phase-transition line. Ferromagnetic insulating states, stabilized by non-local direct exchange interactions, are surprisingly prominent.
