In moir\'e superlattices, the band flatness governs the degree of wave localization, which is central to harnessing emergent phenomena and designing functional meta-devices. While research has focused on the magic conditions such as magic…

It has long been speculated that quasi-two-dimensional superconductivity can reappear above its semiclassical upper critical field due to Landau quantization, yet this reentrant property has never been observed. Here, we argue that twisted…
