The nanosciences were revolutionized by the invention of atomic force microscopy 1, which enabled the first perceptions of the nanoworld by measuring the proximity forces exerted by a sample on a ...

Illustration of a moiré pattern that emerges upon stacking and rotating two sheets of bilayer graphene. Correlated electronic states with magnetic ordering emerge in twisted double bilayer graphene ...

The right part shows typical Brownian motion trajectories in 2D of the nanowire tip (2 s acquisition). The nanowire undergoes an extra external force F ext (r 0 + δr), which is assessed at the ...

Exactly a year ago, researchers at MIT reported on observing superconductivity in twisted bilayer graphene – a new experimental platform engineered on two misaligned graphene layers – at “magic angles ...

Twistronics is a field of study that emerged from the intersection of nanotechnology and materials science. It involves manipulating the electronic properties of two-dimensional (2D) layered materials ...

A different twist: A schematic diagram showing how the method directly visualizes the variations in local twist angles in twisted 2D materials. The new technique revealed pronounced variations in ...
