When two-dimensional crystals are brought into close proximity, their interaction results in strong reconstruction of electronic spectrum and local crystal structure. Such reconstruction strongly depends on the twist angle between the two…
Flat bands in moir\'e superlattices provide a fertile ground for correlated and topological phases, governed by their quantum geometric properties. While the valley-based paradigm captures key features in select materials, it breaks down in…
We develop a theory for a qualitatively new type of disorder in condensed matter systems arising from local twist-angle fluctuations in two strongly coupled van der Waals monolayers twisted with respect to each other to create a flat band…

Lateral superlattices in 2D materials are emerging as a powerful platform for exploring novel quantum phenomena, which can be realized through the proximity coupling in forming moir\'e pattern with another layer. This approach, however, is…
Long-period moir\'e superlattices at the twisted interface of van der Waals heterostructures relax into preferential-stacking domains separated by dislocation networks. Here, we develop a mesoscale theory for dislocations in the networks…
Layers of two-dimensional materials stacked with a small twist-angle give rise to beating periodic patterns on a scale much larger than the original lattice, referred to as a moir\'e superlattice. When the stacking involves more than two…
Materials with flat electronic bands often exhibit exotic quantum phenomena owing to strong correlations. Remarkably, an isolated low-energy flat band can be induced in bilayer graphene by simply rotating the layers to 1.1$^{\circ}$,…
Twisted 2D layered materials have garnered a lot of attention recently as a class of 2D materials whose interlayer interactions and electronic properties are dictated by the relative rotation / twist angle between the adjacent layers. In…
Bilayer graphene twisted at the angle of about 1.1{\deg} better known as magic angle, exhibits ultra-flat moir\'e superlattice bands that are a source of highly-tunable, exotic quantum phenomena. Such phenomena, like superconductivity,…
Moir\'e-superlattices are ubiquitous in 2D heterostructures, strongly influencing their electronic properties. They give rise to new Dirac cones and are also at the origin of the superconductivity observed in magic-angle bilayer graphene.…

Twisted layered van-der-Waals materials often exhibit unique electronic and optical properties absent in their non-twisted counterparts. Unfortunately, predicting such properties is hindered by the difficulty in determining the atomic…
Geometrical moir\'e patterns, generic for almost aligned bilayers of two-dimensional (2D) crystals with similar lattice structure but slightly different lattice constants, lead to zone folding and miniband formation for electronic states.…
