Twisted bilayers of van der Waals materials have recently attracted great attention due to their tunable strongly correlated phenomena. Here, we investigate the chirality-specific physics in 3D moire superlattices induced by Eshelby twist. Our direct DFT calculations reveal helical rotation leads to optical circular dichroism, and chirality-specific nonlinear Hall effect, even though there is no magnetization or magnetic field. Both these phenomena can be reversed by changing the structural chirality. This provides a way to constructing chirality-specific materials.

Moire superlattices in graphene supported on various substrates have opened a new avenue to engineer graphenes electronic properties. Yet, the exact crystallographic structure on which their band structure depends remains highly debated. In this scan
ning tunneling microscopy and density functional theory study, we have analysed graphene samples grown on multilayer graphene prepared onto SiC and on the close-packed surfaces of Re and Ir with ultra-high precision. We resolve small-angle twists and shears in graphene, and identify large unit cells comprising more than 1,000 carbon atoms and exhibiting non-trivial nanopatterns for moire superlattices, which are commensurate to the graphene lattice. Finally, a general formalism applicable to any hexagonal moire is presented to classify all reported structures.
We formulate a fracton-elasticity duality for twisted moire superlattices, taking into account that they are incommensurate crystals with dissipative phason dynamics. From a dual tensor-gauge formulation, as compared to standard crystals, we identify
twice the number of conserved charges that describe topological lattice defects, namely, disclinations and a new type of defect that we dub discompressions. The key implication of these conservation laws is that both glide and climb motions of lattice dislocations are suppressed, indicating that dislocation networks may become exceptionally stable. Our results also apply to other planar incommensurate crystals and quasicrystals.
The atomic structure at the interface between a two-dimensional (2D) and a three-dimensional (3D) material influences properties such as contact resistance, photo-response, and high-frequency performance. Moire engineering has yet to be explored for
tailoring this 2D/3D interface, despite its success in enabling correlated physics at 2D/2D twisted van der Waals interfaces. Using epitaxially aligned MoS$_2$ /Au{111} as a model system, we apply a geometric convolution technique and four-dimensional scanning transmission electron microscopy (4D STEM) to show that the 3D nature of the Au structure generates two coexisting moire periods (18 Angstroms and 32 Angstroms) at the 2D/3D interface that are otherwise hidden in conventional electron microscopy imaging. We show, via ab initio electronic structure calculations, that charge density is modulated with the longer of these moire periods, illustrating the potential for (opto-)electronic modulation via moire engineering at the 2D/3D interface.
Moire superlattices comprised of stacked two-dimensional materials present a versatile platform for engineering and investigating new emergent quantum states of matter. At present, the vast majority of investigated systems have long moire wavelengths
, but investigating these effects at shorter, incommensurate wavelengths, and at higher energy scales, remains a challenge. Here, we employ angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) with sub-micron spatial resolution to investigate a series of different moire superlattices which span a wide range of wavelengths, from a short moire wavelength of 0.5 nm for a graphene/WSe2 (g/WSe2) heterostructure, to a much longer wavelength of 8 nm for a WS2/WSe2 heterostructure. We observe the formation of minibands with distinct dispersions formed by the moire potential in both systems. Finally, we discover that the WS2/WSe2 heterostructure can imprint a surprisingly large moire potential on a third, separate layer of graphene (g/WS2/WSe2), suggesting a new avenue for engineering moire superlattices in two-dimensional materials.
Introduction of a twist between layers of two-dimensional materials which leads to the formation of a moire pattern is an emerging pathway to tune the electronic, vibrational and optical properties. The fascinating properties of these systems is ofte
n linked to large-scale structural reconstruction of the moire pattern. Hence, an essential first step in the theoretical study of these systems is the construction and structural relaxation of the atoms in the moire superlattice. We present the Twister package, a collection of tools that constructs commensurate superlattices for any combination of 2D materials and also helps perform structural relaxations of the moire superlattice. Twister constructs commensurate moire superlattices using the coincidence lattice method and provides an interface to perform structural relaxations using classical forcefields.
