BUFFALO, N.Y. – Moiré patterns occur everywhere. They are created by layering two similar but not identical geometric designs. A common example is the pattern that sometimes emerges when viewing a ...

Researchers at IMDEA Nanociencia have developed an analytical method to explain the formation of a quasi-perfect 1D moiré pattern in twisted bilayer graphene. The pattern, naturally occurring in piled ...

One of the things that makes graphene so special is that it can turn into a superconductor when super-thin sheets of it are stacked on top of each other in a twisted moiré pattern. For some time, ...

The nano-IR imaging set-up for studying the moiré graphene lattice. (Courtesy: G Ni) Researchers at the University of California at San Diego (UCSD) are the first to have used infrared nano-imaging to ...

An interference pattern that emerges from three stacked and twisted layers of graphene, called a supermoiré pattern, can uncover hidden properties of simpler moiré materials. SEAS physicists used a ...

Twisted graphene, also known as twisted bilayer graphene, is a unique structure that may be created by stacking two layers of graphene at a tiny angle, often somewhere between one and two degrees.

Twisted graphene stores memory by combining strain-induced hysteresis and nonlinear response, enabling reprogrammable, low power memory in a pure carbon system. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Electronic memory ...

Moiré patterns occur everywhere. They are created by layering two similar but not identical geometric designs. A common example is the pattern that sometimes emerges when viewing a chain-link fence ...
