Materials with unexpected electronic properties found in twisted layers

Berlin, Germany (SPX) Dec 28, 2024

Researchers at the University of Groningen, in collaboration with international teams, have uncovered surprising electronic behavior in two-dimensional (2-D) materials with a "twist." These ultra-thin materials, consisting of layers just one atom thick, are promising candidates for advanced electronic applications due to their unique properties. When two such layers are stacked at specific angle
