Tunneling and Interlayer Coherence in Twist-Controlled van der Waals Heterostructures

Explore the fascinating world of twist-controlled van der Waals heterostructures in this 48-minute lecture by Emanuel Tutuc at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into the intricacies of tunneling and interlayer coherence as part of the "Engineered 2D Quantum Materials" program. Gain insights into emergent electronic, magnetic, and topological phenomena in two-dimensional synthetic structures of quantum materials. Discover how reduced dimensionality and frustrated coupling across 2D interfaces can lead to new electronic band structures and host emergent behaviors not found in bulk systems. Learn about topics such as magnetism, topological superconductivity, flat bands, correlated phenomena, and more in twisted van der Waals materials and other novel layered structures. Benefit from the expertise of physicists and materials scientists discussing cutting-edge research in artificially engineered heterostructures, including oxide interfaces, twisted cuprates, and moire materials.
