Abstract:

Van der Waals bilayers with a small difference in the lattice constant and/or orientation have long-period moiré patterns, which provide vast new opportunities to control material properties. I will focus on twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) and show how the interplay between many-body interactions, Bloch band symmetry and topology of TBG can lead to possible unconventional superconductivity as well as quantum anomalous Hall effect [1, 2]. If time allows, I will also describe our theoretical proposal of using twisted bilayer transition metal dichalcogenides as quantum simulators of Hubbard model [3, 4], and discuss recent experimental realizations.
