Synthesized micro- and nanotubes composed of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) such as MoS$_2$ are promising for many applications in nanophotonics, because they combine the abilities to emit strong exciton luminescence and to act as…
Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) bare large Berry curvature hotspots readily exploitable for geometric band effects. Tailoring and enhancement of these features via strain is an active research direction. Here, we consider…
Twisted bilayers offer a compelling and, at times, confounding platform for the engineering of new twistronic materials. Whereas standard studies almost exclusively focus on the explicit enigma that is presented by twist-angles, perhaps…

Band engineering in twisted bilayers of the five generic two-dimensional Bravais networks is demonstrated. We first derive symmetry-based constraints on the interlayer coupling, which helps us to predict and understand the shape of the…
Low-dimensional materials have emerged as promising hosts for quantum emitters, whose emission typically arises from either strain-induced band bending or defect-induced two-level systems. Among these materials, transition metal…

Cross-plane thermal conductivity in homogeneous transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) exhibits a strong dependence on twist angle, originating from atomic reconstruction within moir\'e superlattices. This reconstruction redistributes…
Moir\'e superlattices serve as a playground for emerging phenomena, such as localization of band states, superconductivity, and localization of excitons. These superlattices are large and are often modeled in the zero angle limit, which…
